an exciting piece of work, the bear looks dynamic with this fur.

Hi, thanks for your sharing on similar scenario in other industry. i guess it would be less subjective to judge for the look alike print than bear making. And yes, Gabriele, we do hope our energy on hand craft work will not be limit if we have a happy co-operation in terms and offer. Thank you so much for bringing me attention on the duration of shop exclusivity and the awareness on the signature look  :hug:
cheers,

Hello, can anyone explain what is shop exclusive? and how do you define 'look alike design' if you work with more than one shop??

thank you for your sweet comment.

he's dressed up and got a gentlemen posture.

he got a lovely face.

Here is one of my design for the Teddies Worldwide online show.
She is 5" with accessories. Thanks for the suggestion last time of how to sew leather to small bears. I have it done. Wish you like her.

oh, he capture  all my attention...

i wish to be there, to give them a hug  :hug:, wish you all the best, Joanne!

Hello Joanne and Kelly.
oh yes, i use general needle and Guterman thread for thin leather, and i have the experience that the triangular on thin leather leaves big hole if i need to remove the stitching and cannot be used anymore  ,
i have seen people in Australia use artifical sinew, but don't know what's the difference between usual thread with wax? what's their advantage?
will go and try the Dritz quilting needle, thanks for your suggestion.

I finally shifted to another alternative to sew on lined leather, which is leather with lining, it shows the embossed pattern, but not obvious. Maybe i have to take a short course in this aspect  :doh:
The link above is wonderful, like their dye, those colors look natural, thanks Elena 

Hi,

I just add a photo that the design is embossed on the leather, cow skin, 0.2 cm thick, sorry Joanne,  i don't know the weight, as they are scrap from craft store.

find it difficult to sew on 4" bear and the seam is not clean as well even with size 3/7 leather needle, is the problem of thread? what kind of thread you use? mine is strong cotton thread.
in the meantime, i try to do the embossed on thin leather, sheep skin and suede ( for much easier to sew ), the final outcome is very weak, that the image cannot be seen 

will try the sewing machine for the holes linked to the body, thanks Elena.

Hello TTers,
I' m trying the tools on leather, it works well, but it's too thick to sew, then i try this on ultra suede or sheep skin, but it seems not yield satisfactory result.
What would you suggest?

they are lovely, wish you have a good show.
