Gooseberry Hill have some lovely vintage bear patterns on their website. gooseberryhill.com/Patterns/GBHOnline/b … rns_p1.htm
Hope this is what you are looking for. Otherwise, Linda Mullins wrote a couple of 'Creating Heirloom Bears' books which are probably now out of print.

Three cheers! Teddy making can be a solitary pursuit, so TT is a life saver!
Many, many thanks

Such an adorable teddy face - just heart-melting with 'please cuddle me' eyes!
He is a little darling! I just don't know how you manage to get so much detail and realism into such a small creation...especially working with real fur! I bet he's a fabulous cuddle!

Such a lovely, sweet face. I also love the hat and scarf and how his ears peep out!

He is a sweetie!
Gilbert is a large, 15 inch mohair mouse. He is made from two shades of lovely Schulte mohair in blonde and ginger. He has six joints, including a double-neck joint, cashmere paws and pads, glass eyes with felt eye whites and a hand-moulded nose made by myself using epoxy clay. He has whiskers and a long tail. I have knitted him a scarf and bobble hat using hand spun banana silk in shades of cream, brown and gold as he looked to be feeling the cold. He is looking for a new home.

Very sweet and demure! Love the black hair!
Just adorable! So, so sweet!
Oh, dear. I think it must be a bad photo! In the fur he has an ' I didn't do it, honest' face.

Many, many thanks Katie, Debora, Becky, Joanne and Peter. It was a wrench to part with them. I think I'm getting soft!

They are both delightful and you have taken some wonderful photos of them. Lucky, lucky mum!
Someone will be absolutely thrilled Christmas morning!
This is Angus. He is made from a lovely tipped alpaca. He has sculpted leather paws and six joints. He has found a new home along with Filbert, so he has a friend to keep him company when his new mom goes out. 
Please say hi to Junior. He was made from a lovely Schulte tipped alpaca. He has sculpted cashmere paws and 6 joints. He has found a new mom for Christmas.

CONGRATULATIONS to all the winners at the British Bear Fair. There were so many lovely finalists! It was lovely to finally meet so many TTers, even though I was weighed down by my broken foot. I didn't think I would be able to go, but my better half told me it wasn't an option, and insisted on driving me there and back.
It was particularly nice to chat to Richard, Katy, Vicki, Dawn, Susan, Natascha and Julie and many thanks, also to the collectors who took my bears home with them. Blossom was very proud to win the Realistic category and is hopefully settling into her new home. All in all, it was a perfect day for me and really cheered me up!
Hugs
Sue
Well done, Janet. I hope your bear making brings you as much pleasure as it has given me!

Just love his plump tummy and slouch!
Thank you ladies! Lots to think about!
What a lovely, cuddly fellow...just the sort of bear you can share your secrets with!

I sent a 1 kilo bear to the US Airsure from the UK on the 22nd Nov. I wasn't charged a surcharge, so I wonder if the UK post office hasn't caught up yet?

Sue
He's a little treasure! Wonderfulwork!
