The teddy bear on the left is the first bear I ever made. I don’t think she even had a name, the poor little waif.
I still use the very same pattern, but more than 300 elle bears later, they look now more like Grizzly here, on the right.

Awww that little bear on the left though. You’ve come a long way, Elle! Grizzly is a handsome boy.
