Make A Teddy teddy bear making supplies mohair patterns teddy bear kit

Welcome to our new 'Make A Teddy' website the new home for Norbeary Fabrics

We are Barbara and Andy Cunningham and this is our new website for our teddy bear making supplies (which we previously ran as Norbeary Fabrics since 2007) and our Barbara Ann Bears teddy bear patterns.

Quite a lot of our mohair is out of stock at the moment and we will be reordering and restocking soon. We have some of our hand dyed mohair to add too :)

The website isn't quite finished yet, over time it will grow to include more mohair, hand dyed and traditional, more patterns and kits, and the other bits and bobs you need to make a teddy bear. You can also find out about our teddy bear making workshops and which teddy bear fairs we will be attending.

You can see a selection of our items below but please use the menu on the left to see everything, thank you.
