Some of my crochet bears made and finished using various techniques.  May these inspire others to try their hand on crocheting bears bear_grin

Mixed Media I use for my fabric bears and crochet bears as wel.  This is one of my N.O.S.T.© Bears. I won many International Awards with this design and is unique for ThReAdTeDs®.
This bear was crocheted from wool and then wet felted. The face/muzzle is needle felted with a wet felted finish (to smooth out the holes left by the needles).  The hat, jacket, bag and slippers are wet felted from merino wool.
The paw pads are leather look.

Enjoy!!

bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub Love all!
I have still crocheted no bear.
To needle felts is my big passion and sew.
If I see your creations, I am inspired to improve a lot.
However, of course I want to be I myself and no copy.

Thank you Conni!!
I think your bears are very recognizable as being yours. I too love needle felting but have done only a few all needle felted bears.

I don`t think it is copy if using a learned technique in your creations. Most techniques, if not all, are around for many, many decades.
I am thankful to all those wonderful people who wrote/write down all their knowledge so we could learn.
The way we use these techniques varies, which results in many unique creations.

Look forward seeing you at Wiesbaden!!

I LOVE your creations, they are always so unique and full of character, hard to believe that they are actually crocheted!  :love:

So many adorable bears! Your bears are what inspired me to try them in the first place Berta. While im still learning, seeing all the unique ways you make them is such a boost for me to try new things and create my own style!

Love your work,
