About

Join Nicola from Stonehenge Crafts to make a gorgeous traditional jointed mohair bear or a fluffy flamingo or swan. Mostly sewn by machine although some hand sewing is required. Sewing machines and all other tools are provided. Full instruction and guidance is given but you must be confident using a sewing machine as scant seams are sewn throughout.. Kits are available to purchase on the day if you wish to make more at home. Numbers are limited to ensure plenty of individual guidance and support throughout the bear making process.

You are required to purchase the kits (mohair, pattern, stuffing etc) on the day with cash to Nicola – please note the cost depends on what you choose – Bear £35 kit, Flamingo – £70 kit, Swan – £70 kit. This is an additional cost to the workshop cost

The pattern and full instructions are yours to take away, so you can make your own memory or heirloom bears at home afterwards.
