The following is a link to a tutorial on making a Peter Pan collar.

It should be easy enough to reduce it to fit a bear.  Hope this helps

Beautiful work, Francesca!  I'm sure Micio will be snapped up at the show!

He's a real sweetie!

Coco is lovely!  Great work!

I NEVER draw a seam allowance on my designs.  That way, when I increase or decrease the size of the pattern on my photocopier, I don't need to worry about the seam allowance being increased or decreased at the same time.

Hi Lisa
I'm not absolutely sure exactly what you are asking.  I draw out the leg pattern.  I take the measurement across the bottom and double it.  I then take a piece of string that length, position it in the shape of foot I want on a piece of paper, taping the two ends of string together, and draw around the string and cut it out.

Lovely!  He really looks at home in the woods!

Wonderful!  I love his chubby tummy!

Really lovely collection!  Can't wait to see them 'in the fur'!

She looks full of mischief (but very lovable) to me! I love that shade of alpaca.

Beautiful!

She is absolutely lovely, Becky!

He's a real cutie, Becky!

Really sweet, Berta! He has a real 1920s or 30s feel!

Just precious!    

Beautiful little sweetie!

Adorable!

Gorgeous...as sweet as they come!

So cute!

Aah, Wendi!  She is a sweetie!

Thank you, Ali!  I have cut back to only doing Hugglets, Brighton and Daphne's online shows, so now tend to hold back the photos, so collectors have something new to see!  Hope all is well with you.

He is lovely! ...and it isn't easy to sew real fur, so very well done!  I think he is great and could not criticise anything about him.  I wish my first bear had been this good!

Hi Natascha

I love them all!  I'm in the hall downstairs on Sunday.  Looking forward to seeing you!
Hugs

Such happy bears - just full of personality!
