I did one on an embroider bear. It has enclosed stuffing for the belly that you just zip out, embroider, then refill. You can see it in the projects section....I brought it back to the top for you.

Do you want to make a teddy yourself? Or use a ready made one. In the last case, open up the back seam, empty poor ted, hoop it some way or other (see one of the posts for a view, link below), embroider, refill, stitch up the seam. Making one is of course a different matter. Maybe you can get a pattern with instructions for materials to choose. Good luck and let's see the results.

Minnie if U want to do an already made teddy. You would have to take it apart or get the tummy part loose enough with no stuffing to fit n a hoop. I think this would b virtually impossible. If U want to make a teddy from scratch I'd buy a good pattern, some imitation fur, & then U would embroidery the tummy part before assembling. *4U

minnie, sorry for your difficulty - but with this question - I can't seem to figure out what you mean - can you ask it in a different way?
