Each teddy bear has a character, which is defined and brought to life by its creator. Every bear's eyes have a tale to tell. Despite the variety of appearance, teddy bears never live without a peaceful sense of self-contentment and non-aggressiveness --- a quality that all humans must learn to acquire.

All bears are good, as are their creators or owners. You can't make or own a teddy bear without a good heart. That's the rule!

I made the following bears some years ago, all by hand, and hopefully I had also given them life. I named them Adam, Jonathan and David.

• Adam -- Named after the first man that was created. This is a relatively easy bear to make, with cotton stuffing.
• Jonathan -- Named as originally designed. This is a full-feature bear, with turnable head, arms and legs. Wood-wool stuffing.
• David -- Named after Bible's King David. This is a semi-miniature bear, with turnable head, arms and legs. Wood-wool stuffing for head, and glass beads for body and limbs. The making of small bears is hard!
