This is one of my favorite cross stitch books. The charts are so adorable, and there are so many different things to make. There are patterns for sweatshirts, baby items, and pictures done on Aida and linen. I think Leisure Arts has the best way of printing the charts so that they are easy to follow. I love the large squares with colored symbols. I am not even a huge teddy bear fan or collector, but I had to get this book when I saw it. It is definitely worth buying!

If you are a teddy bear person this is an excellent book to have. It has a variety of teddy bears in several sizes and dressed for all occassions. The designs are in color and are easy to use. However, the book has only teddy bears and many of the designs are too large to use for anything other than wall hangings or on afghan's. Some of the designs have appeared in other books. The designs are well shaded meaning you may use up to 30 or more colors. These are not designs that could be finished easily in an afternoon. This book is for the more experienced cross stitcher.

I love to cross stitch, and am always looking for new books to add to my collection. This book is really great. The patterns are so adorable and they are really easy to follow. I highly recommend this one.

This book is really a good one. Every page gives me surprise. The bears are all adorable. I showed it to my colleages, they all said the book was really worth the price. Even you don't have the time to stitch, you will be pleased by all those bears. The charts have symbols and are coloured, very easy to follow. The only regret is the book can't lie flat when open, so I can't see the whole photo clearly sometimes (some big pictures lie across two pages). I think a hard cover edition will be better.

Anyway, a very good investment if you like teddy bears.

I've used this book over and over, loving each stitch I've put into the pattern I did. I still love this book. If you like teddy bears, this one is a sure win.
