Wonderful! I love that happy face!
Many thanks for the lovely comments. He is on his way to Canada. It's a good job he has such a thick coat. The winters can be brutal!

He's stunning, Paula. I wish he was mine!
What a fab hug! Wonderful!
I also buy my locline from CR Crafts. They sell it by the foot. The shipping is very reasonable. Just make sure you keep the value of your order below the amount that attracts import duty.

Christingle is a large, polar bear looking for a home for Christmas. You can find out more about him at the Christmas Treasures online show. The show closes tomorrow. He has a locline neck and spine and wired limbs, so can be posed in many different ways. He is made from a wonderful, dense German alpaca.

Many congratulations, Laurie and Chloe. My polar bear, Pakak, won the Realistic category. I'm looking forward to him returning from Teddy Bear Times so I can give him a big hug!

Such a lovely, gentle face!
Re: an inset muzzle - If you are concerned about the seam lines showing, ensure you use a dense fur and take great care with the direction the fur pile is running on the side head, gusset and muzzle pieces. I often cut side head pieces with the fur running about 120 degrees from the vertical. (facing forward)
I hope this helps.

Lovely! I'm sure your friend will be delighted!
They are lovely, Lisa. Such a range of sizes, too! I hope you have a lovely day at the show and they all find lovely new homes.

He's wonderful!
She is a sweetie!
They bring a smile to my face! I'm so glad they are being auctioned together. It would be sad to separate them.
I love this guy! His proportions are great!
I'm pretty sure it is an Aerlinn Bear pattern by Esther Pepper. She has an Etsy shop, where she has some of her patterns for sale, so you may be able to contact her through Etsy and ask if the pattern is still available. Hope this helps!

Many congratulations to all!!!
What a lovely pair of little characters! I love bears that stand well and these two are made for each other.
He is delightful!
I love his tubby tum. He is MUCH NICER than the first bear I made!
What a lovely little cub!
What a lovely, gentle face. Very sweet!
