Craft Your Own Cuddly Buddy with These Free Crochet Teddy Bear Patterns!
Teddy Bears will always remind me of comfort and safety. When I was a child, one of my first ‘baby gifts’ was a traditional teddy bear from my Nana and Gramps. That little bear is quite well-worn and loved and I suspect he was a constant companion of mine for the first few years of my life. Especially at bedtime.
When I was very sick with my Crohn’s Disease and in the hospital for the first time 20+ years ago, my boyfriend (now hubby) brought me a teddy bear that he had chosen in the gift shop downstairs. I can’t tell you how much that teddy bear means to me. The comfort and security that Bear (yes I am terrible at picking names lol) represented seems to be attached forever to his furry little face.
