I think the head gets to high on top, but maybe I could try to make a bigger head and lower the forhead ?
Thats the only 2 piece head I have ever made.

Oh, he is cute - Orange is one of my fav colors.    bear_wub

Hi Pat.

One patternpiece, can't even think of how you did that bear_original    Can we see this bear ?
I'm not having the problem every time,only sometimes, and it frustrate me a lot   bear_cool
Maybe the fabric have something to do with it too ?




"
  The latest fix I've come up with is to eliminate the darn center seam beneathe the nose altogether and have combined both sides of the face into a single pattern piece.  I've only made one bear head this way but it worked well and not having the bulk of the seam beneathe the nose allowed me to place the separation line exactly center with needle sculpting after the head was sewn and stuffed.  For some reason, this worked well for me.  "

I think he is a really cute clown.love the hat and ruffle.    bear_thumb

Following a tip on here a while ago, I clip the curves, then open the seam out and tack it in place with bright coloured thread (contrasting to the fur so it's easy to spot) and then stuff.  I can then unpick the tacking stitches when stuffed, and it all sits smoothly  bear_thumb

Great tip, thanks Katy - I'll try it.    bear_thumb
