Description
This little one was made as a gift for my cousin's 21st birthday, hence the charm around her neck. And as soon as I put the tiny necklace on I knew she'd be quite the little princess! She looked so sweet with a 'ring' tiara and loved to be lavished upon.Although I must admit, she does have a rather woodland-critter sort of face. It's hard to describe. ^_^;; Kinda chubby. Ah well, I think it's cute.
This one was made from the first pattern I designed myself. For those who don't know, a bear pattern is like a piece of artwork in that it is copyrighted to the creator, so it was rather a big deal for me. *glee*
Specifications:
4 inchs tall when standing
Faux fur and leather paw pads
Black beaded eyes
Hand-sculpted polymer nose
(Please note: any leather used in my creations were from scraps destined for the rubbish bin.)

Ha ha, you are right that she has sort of a ..beaver? face, but I think it really fits! Very nice.

Yeah, the cheeks look rather beaver don't they? If i gave her buck teeth I think she could pass as one. XD But that's ok, I want to do other creatures as well, not just bears.

Wow this is just so precious! Such a lovely design and you picked out the perfect fur as well! Inspires me to go make a bear.

It makes me want to try my hand at a sewn numbat. You can paint fur-material very easily.... if only I could figure out how best to do the tail...

Oh I've never tried to paint fur material. Do you need a special type of paint because I can't see acrylic working very well. I would love to see if you do make one

Wow, that is awesome beyond words. When I saw the first couple of pictures I thought it was quite a bit bigger, then I saw it in your hand and I was amazed at how small it really is! How did you do it?

Thank you for all you wonderful comments on my bears. You do some fabulous work too. It's great finding a fellow bear-artist on DA.
It's similar to making a larger bear, similar principles. The pattern is shrunk and often altered slightly so that it can be turned easier. And it is handsewn together.

Very cute! It looks very good, especially since you used your own pattern.

Thank you! Heehee, it was quite tempting to keep her myself! But I shall certainly be making more, not exactly the same but hopefully just as cute.
