Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

well I gave Goldie a whirl, minus the hardware... I basically just sewed the arms and legs onto the body where the washers should have been.  I'm pretty pleased with the results for a first try.  I posted a picture in the challenge gallery.. I chose a fabric that was easy to work with for the first time.  Next time I will try one a little more bear like in nature.   

thanks for the advice, does anyone know where i can find a pattern for an unjointed bear?? everywhere i look I can only find jointed patterns. Or the kind where its only two pieces of fabric sewn together to make the whole body.

HI.
I was lucky enough to find an entire truckload of stuffed animal material being given away for free recently. So I'm trying my hand at making teddy bears.  I really like your Goldie Patttern, but I was wondering if there was any way to put her together without the washers and locking nuts?  I want to start with a basic run of the mill Teddy that is simply just stuffing inside, nothing fancy. 
If anyone can help me to figure out how to put teddies together without the hardwear I would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks.
