Thank you so much for making it look so easy and explaining it so well! ☺️

[@irenelesueur7488]

Love!! Now I can do the same stitch every bear!! Thank you 😊

[@Katielovegood44]

Thank you! U got the camera angle perfect and you made what I found really hard, now very easy :) thank you for the clear instructions!

[@e1985-]

Just wanted to give a big "Thank You!" to you for making and sharing this video with us! The gentle pace and camera angles made this very do-able for a sewing beginner like me, and I really appreciate having this skill to repair some plush - thanks again! :D

[@brandybaranoski6498]

You are the absolute best I started making art dolls and have never picked up a sewing needle a day in my life 🤦🏻 this was a clear tutorial I subscribed to you!

[@Whitney_Sews]

So glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for the comment and for subscribing :)

[@Cinnamousey]

Thanks so much for posting an easy to follow guide for this stitch. I just discovered that my favorite build-a-bear wasn’t stitched up properly the last time I had him worked on and the stitching that was put in place has come undone somehow (I’m not rough with my stuffed animals so idk how this managed to happen other than poor stitching). He’s got a big hole in the back of his head now and at this point I’d rather just fix him myself then go through the process of bringing him all the way back to the store again. I’m a beginner with sewing though so this is extremely helpful as I wasn’t sure how I was going to make sure the stitching was invisible.

[@Whitney_Sews]

I'm so glad this video was helpful for you!

[@Sweetpeapiggiepig]

Thank you so much! Now my Geoff looks good as new! This way my 1st successful ladder stitch & you're the only one who I could understand about the stitch. Thank you again & I will be subscribing.- KrissyMcD

Thanks I just added more stuffing to our Mario mushroom. My stitches aren’t very neat as a total noob but it’s good enough. Looks much better now. Thanks again. Alan (Coventry, England)

[@Whitney_Sews]

[@robynthompson1860]

My sons stuffy has a rip and he’s been askin me for months to sew it. Thanks so much this was so helpful.

[@smallcags]

Thank you for this! I have used this stitch in the past and couldn't for the life of me remember how to do it.

[@PupRiku]

Thank you for this! I've watched so many videos where they try to make it as invisible as possible and it's really hard to see what they're actually doing.

[@jeanneluddeni3121]

This was perfect my toys look like a 2 year old did them lol thanks

[@KarenGreene51]

Whitney...do you have a tutorial on how to sew so e britches on the memory bear? ❤️

[@Whitney_Sews]

Check you the playlist linked in the video's description box. All of my memory bear videos are there :)

[@chrisvarah3789]

Hi love have just been given a simplicity patten 8155 and can’t understand the feet can you help please many thanks

[@ifukill7538]

I'm refurbishing Jacko chimp (chad valley) my sewing has always been bad. Looks easy to follow how you are doing it. Have you any videos of mending vintage toys?

[@Whitney_Sews]

No, I don't have any videos about working on vintage toys.

[@marshallmellow316]

hey I'm really new to sewing so sorry if this is a stupid question but if the bears over stuffed why can't you just take out some of the stuffing?

[@eclipse_eternal8178]

could you do a ladder stitch for the whole plush or is it better to use another one

[@Whitney_Sews]

I would recommend it only for closing up the stuffing holes.

[@sidoniemc6743]

Please can you tell me which interfacing you use please an thank you ps I have learn so from you

[@Whitney_Sews]

Interfacing - amzn.to/2EHj4QW

[@lindab8563]

Was there a vest to go with this bear? Thank you!

[@Whitney_Sews]

I've never made the vest from the pattern. Just don't care for the look of it.

[@hollyjackson6473]

Does this work for craft felt?

[@Whitney_Sews]

I haven't tried it with felt.

[@lindabridges445]

Great closer. Do you put a label on the bears. Where do you get your labels? Or do you make your own?

[@Whitney_Sews]

No, I don't put labels. I don't feel comfortable marketing myself on something that is so special and made from a loved ones clothing.

[@lindabridges445]

Whitney Sews yes I agree. However what about just making the bears or other projects that memories?

[@Whitney_Sews]

I'm not understanding the last question, but as I right now I don't use labels in anything I make. I don't try to sell handmade on a regular basis, so labels just aren't important to me.

[@theeyesehaveit]

Had to watch this again since I did not do the stitch correctly. But got it right now. BTW- where do you get the labels that I see you put on your bears?

[@Whitney_Sews]

My bears don't have labels

[@theeyesehaveit]

In this video about .46 way through, near the beginning ....u show the back of a bear...red color fabric back and top of its head, to the left looks like a patch or label?

[@Whitney_Sews]

@@theeyesehaveit That is the carhart tag that was originally on the shirt I cut up and used for the bear.
