Everything you need to craft this felt brown bear stuffie is listed below under tools and materials. You will also find the pattern, photo tutorial, and written instructions as downloads at the end of the post.

Once you're done crafting your felt brown bear stuffie, you can give him something to hold. He's cute on his own, but this just makes him look even cuter, we think! Sometimes we sew an object into a stuffie's hands, like with our felt polar bear stuffie. And sometimes we just place something there. For our felt brown bear stuffie, we gave him a felt eucalyptus sprig to hold.

If you have little ones who want to join in on the crafting fun with you, check out our felt pine cone bears. This is a super simple and fun craft project for kids. And it's a great way for everyone in the family to spend time crafting together.

  3. Whip stitch the belly, face, and ear details in place; then blanket stitch the ear pieces together.
