Paige Gilchrists's Making Teddy Bears

This book is very well done and has lots of gorgeous color pictures to emphasize the finished products. Also gives a brief history of each bear shown and "Teddy Bear Tips" throughout the pages. Comes with numerous patterns in the back that you can enlarge to suit your style and taste. If you are not a sewer or teddy bear maker, this will overwhelm you. Not for the beginner but nice to have anyway.
