That was tough one...
Don't know how do you girls sew smaller ones but 3.2" is the smallest I could get.

Here is the bear. His name is Pin and he is made of viscose. has glass eyes with eyelids and whites.
I needle and scissirs scilpted his muzzle to make him to look like my normal big bears.

Not sure if I'm going to mae more than 1 but that was quite a challenge for me.

Sheila, Marion & Sarah Jane!! thanks!!

I read on this miniature forum that turning is 50% agony of this whole venture... Yeah.. I have to say for me it was all 70%!!

The rest is just fine. working with the head was the most fun part. couple stiches and your needle-sculpting is done!! :crackup:

I admire all mniature bear artists. Such a jewerly work.

Hugs, Julia bear_flower

I'm sorry I missed him earlier Julia.
He is one really great bear. I particularly love the fact that you were able to keep your unique style and pattern with him. :clap: To retain his big bear qualities on your first mini :clap:
I will now hunt out your smaller bear. :dance:

I think he looks great! He is a sweet little bear.
I think that viscose is a very difficult to use fabric. You have done a great job!!! :clap: :clap: :clap:
I minis for about a year... I couldn't take it anymore... My eye would only focus to about 24" in front of my face. bear_wacko
I still have a few floating around the house. MaeLynn plays with them once in awhile.
