Pattern description

A plump, hugging teddy bear in warm chocolate brown greets you with an oversized smile and bright, cheerful eyes in this counted cross-stitch design. The charming figure sits with one arm raised in a welcoming gesture, its rounded ears and pink rosy cheeks giving it an innocent, child-friendly appeal perfect for nursery projects or handmade greetings.

The palette combines rich brown tones with soft pink accents and sky-blue details, creating a gentle, approachable mood. An adjacent text panel (stitched in pale blue) provides space for personalization—add a name, message, or greeting to make each piece uniquely meaningful.

At 95×95 stitches using 14 DMC colors, this intermediate-level pattern works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric and stitches up into a treasured keepsake. Whether framed, mounted on a card, or crafted into a small pillow, the design's simple geometry and friendly expression make it an ideal gift for new parents, baby showers, or anyone who collects sweet animal needlework.

The stitched lettering reads: your text.
