I appologize for this very late post but due to a heavily illness of mine I've not been able to finish my couple of best friends in time... and even the date of the deadline must be kinda dead now... anyway, finally got them finished and figured there would be still a chance that some of you'ld want to see them, so here they are:
Plum the Bear and Pudding his ducky (both where done in crochet and are my own design)
I loved everyone elses entries, very creative and oh so cuddly cute designs 
Oh edie how wonderfull both friends turned out, love them! 
And the idea with the magnet is brilliant, too - such a sweet couple!
Thank you very much, Ming :hug:
guess what, my mum requested such a towel teddy too ::laughs:: will see when I can get this done... days are busy this summer.
awww what a cutie love the details on his feet and the tiny snout compared with those sparkling eyes
May I introduce 'Bobbles' and 'Ammon' to you...
they are both crocheted bears of mine I recently finished.
Both are one of a kind creations and not for sale but for my private collection.
Both boys measure only 6 cm (2,36 inches) standing.
Bobbles comes with his own cuddly blanket which I crocheted out of sewing thread to make it fit to his size.
He is a nuzzling little fellow.
Ammon choosed to live in our Backgammon suitcase and 'works' as my lucky charm while playing backgammon with my hubby. Ammon does his job quite well... which drives my hubby nuts 
Thank you for your nice comments everyone 
what an adorable baby bear Bonnie is Wonderfull work on her, congrats!

oops, pardon the double post I only ment to refresh the side :redface:

Great!
I have some VERY pink and fluffy yarn around from which I couldn't decide what to make into for some weeks.
Guess it's becoming a bear! Now only for the friend.... well, I think the right idea is to come once the bear is finished
I actually gave it a try and sewed my very first bear and am very pleased with how he turned out :dance:
Of course I had no fur around since I usually crochet my creations. So an old terry cloth towel compaired with a yellow washcloth were chosen to give birth to 'Baby Frottee Bear'.
The pattern I used is available for free on craftbits.com and it's called Baby Pip.
Frottee has about 20 cm high, which is a wee bit under 8 inches and is completely handsewn.
After Frottee was finished I realized that he fits perfect in the something new from something old challenge, so here he is. I hope you like him as much as I do
He will become a get-well-soon-bear for my Dad who currently recovers from an eye operation.
Hugs, Andrea
May I enter the challenge with a crocheted bear and his/her friend?
If so, please count me in
This is Flocke and while she is a true polar bear she absolutely hates to be in the cold
but loves to snuggle up and play around in the warmth of a lovely home.
She is a crocheted bear, made out of Schachenmayr nomotta Rosato (which is unfortunately no longer available), very soft to the touch, has beautifull glass eyes, is 4 way thread jointed and measures about 17 cm high.
She is the first bear I made from my own crochet pattern in november 2008 and only two weeks later she was adopted. That is where it all started and I kept designing crochet bears.
