Some of you asked for an anime bear, so here she comes!

Please, meet ChocoCerise (choco for chocolate, the colour of her mohair; cerise means cherry, the colour of her nose, mouth, etc).

I have not totally finished her; I am waiting for extra strong thread to do a bit more needle and thread sculting around her eyes.

I made her Rocaille bead ornaments but am still waiting for some sun to make nice pics... so be patient, please!

So she is made with chocolate brown short pile mohair, quite dense. She has got amber plastic safety eyes (I promise I will try glass eyes on my next anime bear).
she has a four part body and has got such a big tummy that both malko and i finally decided this bear was a pregnant bear!!!

She is filled with super soft heavy uncarded polyester and has plastic pellets too in her belly.
She is fully jointed with plastic safety joints.
She has felt paw/foot pads. I sculted her toes.
