I’ve been loving bears for some time now, I even made one last year. Unfortunately it wasn’t the most positive experience. I was too scared to buy expensive mohair in case I mucked it up so I got a synthetic, half of which I believe I ended up inhaling. Lots of sneezing, not nice!
Although my bear turned out pretty cute his joints are very wobbly and if you look close you can see how shonky he is.
So… I’ve just purchased a bear kit for the first time (real mohair!!) from Beary Cheap and I’ll hope for more success this time.
In the meantime, here are some real cuties from Flickr.
By The Craggy More – love that little outfit!
From Bumpkin Bears
And this rugged up cutie from Trobertabq.
Wish me luck – I think I’ll need it!
