These Felt Mini Bear Pocket Pals are very beginner-friendly and so much fun to create. Easy embroidery and adorably tiny details come together in a mighty, albeit teeny, package. Once you get the hang of it, add a few more to your collection with our Felt Frog and Felt Bunny Pocket Pals.
So, I know you’re thinking: could these possibly get any cuter? And the answer is, yes! These adorable bears come with their own miniature wardrobe and accessories that bring each character to life. Mix and match their little overalls, dresses, t-shirts, and more to foster your kiddos’ imaginative play and maximize storytelling fun.
After you finish your very last stitch, these Felt Mini Bear Pocket Pals are ready for adventure. Your kiddos can tuck them into pockets or line them up for playtime. And because they’re quick to make, it’s easy to create a whole set of friends to share. There’s also plenty of room to make them your own. For example, you can change the felt colors or add your own tiny details for a more custom feel. No two need to look alike; in fact, the more variety, the better.
When your Felt Mini Bear Pocket Pals are ready to roam, share them with us in the crafters’ community and on social using #MadeWithLia.

Leave a CommentI love your patterns so much! I don’t know if you take suggestions but a larger version of the panda bear would be so cool, or maybe a wolf! Thank you so much for making these patterns so accessible!! <3
Thank you for the suggestions Kate! We love hearing what projects our members would like to see and try to add them in to our collections 🙂
Hoping you can add these cuties to your list of projects to convert to SVG. Thanks!
The SVG has been uploaded 🙂
Wow! Thank you!
I’ve just started to stitch up one of these little bears, but I’m not sure exactly how to do the blanket stitch. I’ve done the head and face so far, but my stitching isn’t very neat around the ears. Any chance you could give a little close up tutorial and/or pics of how you’ve sewn them up??
It is hard to show, but you start with the ear sandwiched between the 2 head pieces. You poke the needle through all 3 layers, then come back up just through the ear, staying close to the edge, then finishing the stitch to move onto the next. A great example on how to do this is in our Felt Fox Video. Hope that helps!
Thank you! I didn’t realise there were videos as well. These are awesome and I’ll hopefully be able to make up a few for next year’s Christmas shoeboxes!!! Thank you for sharing your creations.
Hi there!
All of the little critters are adorable!
I’m trying to figure out though what thickness I should purchase from Felt on the Fly.
They have 1mm, 1.5mm etc.
Thanks for your help! and the cuteness 😉
Thanks so much! 1mm works best for most of our projects.
Definitely going to make these. So cute!!! Debbie
So glad you like them, Debbie!
attach a tube of the dress color on the back and you have beautiful finger dolls. Or don’t stuff the bodies and leave the dress seam open for your fingers.
Nice teddies 🙂 my nieces and nephews will love them
Yes, both great ideas!
