A Gem of a Book!!,
By Judith E. Pavluvcik (Dreaming of the beach in Hawaii, but living in the reality of the desert in Arizona!!) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Making and Dressing Miniature Teddy Bears (Hardcover)
This is a delightfully, wonderful book on how to make various sizes of miniature bears, from 1 3/4 " to 5" bears! The author, Julie Owen, does an outstanding job in instructing the reader in the creation of these precious bears. One can't but help to fall in love and want to create each and every one! Ms. Owen presents a bear to create for each month of the year, in addition to a Sailor Bear, a Polar Bear, and a Baby Bear! Included also are the instructions for the basic 10 bears, on which all of the monthly bears are based on. Other women from around the world have created several of the bears and there is a short credit and story of these bears along with the instructions! Clothes patterns are also included with those bears sporting garments!What I especially love about this book, in addition to the precise and accurate directions, are the incredible pictures and the tips for construction. Nothing seems to have been left out of this book! The author is based in the UK, so the supply list reflects that origin, but most of the supplies can be gathered from your local craft or sewing store in the US. As an avid sewer, I read this book from a sewer's point of view, and found myself constructing the bears along with the directions, and noting that nothing seemed to have been left out by the author. In addition to the construction tips, the reader will find great embellishment tips, to make their bears unique. Ms. Owen has been making bears for quite a long time and also teaches bear workshops. This book reflects her expertise and her love of the bears. This is one of THE BEST craft/sewing books I have seen in a long time. This is a book in which everything you see, you can make! The author also includes a sample birth certificate for your creation! If you are interested in making your own miniature bears, I highly recommend this excellent book!!
