This is my newest bear, and the 1st pattern I've ever designed. I even dyed the mohair myself with Kool-ade!!
He's only about 5" tall. I didn't want to waste mohair just in case LOL
So, he's not perfect, and I can see lots of areas that I'm going to change and improve on, but still I'm proud.
Thanks for looking.
Heather
And proud you should be!!! VERY well done, Heather!! Beautiful color and very cute bear!!! We're really proud of you!!
oh,he's very adorable,I adore the color,what flavor is he? You should be very proud
Hugs,shari.
I like him Heather! I started drawing just one piece of a bear, then two, etc. (Adding my own arm, then leg, etc. to a purchased pattern.) You're brave going all at once!
Yeah Heather...way to go girl...
I did that too...just dove right on it. I was lucky that my first one was a tiny bear that turned out just like I wanted the first time around...must have been a full moon or something. :D
My bigger bear took some tweaking here and there and I'm still tweaking him a bit...
I'm wanting to try some different arms and legs...maybe a chubbier tummy...longer muzzle...oh heck...a whole new bear... :D
He's beautiful...looks like a bluebeary taffy
Heather, he is simply adorable. You should be very proud. What a great first pattern and on such a tiny bear. He does look very tasty in that blueberry fur of his. Great dye job.......do you do human hair too......I could use a change of color
p.s. so did it actually snow there this week ? Watching the weather channel it looked rather cold out west !!!!!
Oh wow, Heather, he is adorable!! Well done!!

Heather, he is so adorable and congratulations for your first original bear !!!!!

What a great start to your designing! He's lovely and I love the colour!
Heather, great job he's really cute & I love his color ~ Sandy
I bet you are so proud. He is really YOURS now. Great feeling when its yours from start to finish.
Wow! This is really your first design?! You've every right to feel pleased with yourself - he's very cute and (as someone else said) truly yours :D.
My first design was....ahem....not quite as successful as yours.....:cool:
Heather he is beautiful...Love the colour and well done on the kool aid lol
I think he is pretty well perfect from his picture, but I think it shows how creative you are if you already 'see' ways to improve him well done
hugs sarah
Like everyone else, I have to say VERY VERY cute and what a scrummy colour...looking forward to seeing what your next bear will be:):)
He's really lovely. Congratualtions. :cool:There's no turning back now, that you have had a taste of design freedom. I'm glad I drink cool aid. It makes pretty bear though. Not sure I could drink anything blue:lol:
Great job Heather.! You did a really nice job with the colors. It's fun to experiment . You nenver know what you might discover!
Question Heather. Does he smell like the kool-aide you used? I think that woudl be really neat.
Heather - you should be very proud, great job. I am almost ready to actually make my first pattern in mohair and I hope it turns out as well as yours has.

Awww shucks, I'm blushing. Thanks for all the complements. I feel so special!
It is very addicting to make your own patterns. And Now I can't stop all the ideas in my head. So many things I want to design now. Just too bad I can't draw!
Shantell, Funny. I named him Bluebeary. Great minds do think alike!!!!
Shari, no idea what flavor it was. My friend had a bunch of kool-aid and I just stole one. Didn't even look at the flavor.
Judi, After a very short time, the kool-aid smell went away. Too bad really.
And for everyone else, thanks again. It means soo much to get feedback. Makes me want to keep going.
Heather

Heather, this is a great bear and I love his proportions. Really great work!

Hi Heather - I think he is soooo cute and amazing for a first bear design - I love the blue too - Big congrats :)
