Never one to be deterred, she fought hard to lead a normal life, attending school and qualifying as a seamstress. Later, she began working for her sisters in their dressmaking shop, but soon found herself running her own ready-to-wear clothing business, that became so busy, she was able to employ other seamstresses.Disney Characters: Steiff has collaborated with Disney to create plush toys featuring beloved Disney characters. These licensed products bring the magic of Disney to life in the form of cuddly and huggable companions. The soft little elephant, which became known as "Elefäntle", captured the heart of a little boy and gave Margarete the idea of producing other soft toy animals, which she did with resounding success."Only the best is good enough for children!" became her motto from then on. When Richard Steiff, Margarete's nephew, created the first jointed Teddy bear with moving arms, legs and head a few years later, the company name became synonymous with high-quality soft toy animals all over the world: everyone from America to Japan loves these cuddly plush companions with the "Button in Ear". She started up her own small business, initially making ladies' and children's clothes. Little did she know, when she was working on a little fabric elephant to be used as a pin cushion, that she was laying the foundation stone for the international company of the future - Margarete Steiff GmbH.
