A Baby Bear for T

Sewist — Mon, 02 Jun 2025 20:00:00 +0000

Ok, I will admit this make was actually finished two years ago, which shows how far behind I am with updating my blog (sorry about that!). I couldn’t resist sewing a bear for my neighbour’s baby son T, although I was a little apprehensive as I’ve never sewn anything for such a young child before […]

Sympathy Bears

Sympathy bears weren’t something I had originally set out to make. But after I made Caramel, I heard that a friend’s cat had died. That’s the kind of time when you would give that friend a sympathetic hug. However, said friend lives in a different country, which made it impossible to give a hug in […]

Unseasonal, but finally finished!

When you think of polar bears, you probably think of snow, ice, and generally cold weather. But this particular polar bear wanted to enjoy a hot summer – or at least as hot as the weather gets here in England! So here is Martin the Polar Bear, who has taken a liking to watching cookery […]

A (not-quite-so) Seasonal Bear UFO

Sewist — Tue, 16 Jun 2020 10:00:00 +0000

I will admit I started making the Polar Bear last year, with the aim of him featuring on my blog before Christmas. Unfortunately ‘real life’ got in the way, as it has a tendency to do, and although I finished the bear, I never got as far as the blog post! So here we have […]

Frank the Not Quite a Polar Bear

Sewist — Tue, 12 Nov 2019 10:00:41 +0000

Ok, so I will admit that this pattern was for a Polar Bear…. and wasn’t actually quite so large either – but when has that ever stopped me?? I printed the pattern off at 200%, pieced the pages together and made myself a brown bear who is the perfect size to cuddle while watching tv. […]

What is black and white, and red all over?

Sewist — Tue, 12 Feb 2019 10:00:57 +0000

There aren’t many sewing patterns out there for penguins which look like they’re sliding down a snowy bank, so when BeeZee Art released her latest penguin pattern, I knew it was one I wanted to try making. Rather than sticking with the traditional penguin colours, I decided to use some tie-dye effect plush fabric I […]

Sea Pancake

Sewist — Tue, 03 Jul 2018 09:00:56 +0000

I’ve been following BeeZeeArt on social media for a while, and loved the Stingrays she’d made, and was especially taken with the Mini Sea Pancakes she’d sold at a convention. Up until that point, I hadn’t realised that Stingrays are known as Sea Pancakes, but once I saw those, I knew I wanted to try […]
