'Bear' Bottoms Originals
Hi all, some of you wanted to see this little cub; he's the first open mouth bear I've done. He has an ultrasuede tongue and I decided to change it up a bit and do his eyes with Amber Glass eyes instead of the handpainted ones I normally use. Of course, he's without his finishing accessory, a bow or something. I hope you all like him! :)

'Bear' Bottoms OriginalsOh, here is a detail (though the pic isn't that great) of his mouth.

Kim-Bee BearsOH MY GOODNESS, HE IS ADORABLE! 
Do you ever make bears that don't turn out???? 
WOWEE!!! I guess we will have to have a lesson on how to do open mouths next 
Kimberly, He looks great!!!! What size is he ?...and I like the mohair.
Hugs, Lynn
Kimberly, he is just gorgeous.

Thank you ladies soo much! My husband doesn't like him... pooh on him! He said he thinks his legs are too skinny... I told him he's a cubby! he's gonna have spindly legs! OK, OK, so I could have given him those fat pudgy cub legs, but I wanted him to look spindly and huggy.
Sabine,
which other forum? Now you've got me all curious...
Kimberly W.
Kim-Bee BearsI think he and his legs are perfect!
Snowy Day BearsHis is so adorable. What a sweet little face. I love him. What did you use for fur? Love the color.

Big beary hugs,

BrisbaneKimberly I think he's adorable...he has such a sweet expression on his face!!!
OxfordKimberly...he is really soooo sweet and adorable...great work! :clap:
'Bear' Bottoms Originals Aww, ladies, you are so sweet! Thank you!
I guess I could have said: he is made from Intercal's 370 s/c and to be quite honset with you, I bought it at a show, so I'm not sure exactly what color it is! But he's mohair!
Kimberly W.
Delartful BearsOh I think EVERYTHING about him is perfect - tell your Hubby he is wrong LOL
Gorgeous bear, like all your bears!
Danni
'Bear' Bottoms Originals You ladies are so supportive; I love you guys!!!!!! He can stand pretty well on his own, but I guess he's just kinda like a little cub... If he gets off balance, he's a bit wobbly!
Kimberly W.
LuxembearsReally nice open mouth bear, Kim. It looks so natural. I love his little pink tongue..and as always you make the CUTEST feet with perfect toes.

Bine-TeddiesSabine,
which other forum? Now you've got me all curious... :)Kimberly W.
Kim,
:redface: Wrong term perhaps? I meant the thread under General here on this forum. There is a thread on what type bear would seduce us. Yours would seduce me. 
:hug:
'Bear' Bottoms OriginalsAwww, Sabine, that's truly a wonderful compliment to hear! I wasn't aware of that thread, I think I'll have to take a minute and go look for it! Thank you for saying that; it made me smile!
Judi, thank you so much. I took a look earlier at the bears you have for your upcoming show! Marvelous!!!!! Where is the show you are going to?
Kimberly W.
Chowlea BearsHow wonderful. :clap: :clap: Which method did you decide on in the end?
What type of mohair is he?
Congratulations.
'Bear' Bottoms OriginalsHI Sandra,
Do you mean what method did I end up using for the open-mouth? I cut my pattern the way I always do and then cut a slit for his mouth and made an insert for the inside of his mouth.
He's Intercal's 370 S/C, but I'm not sure what color. i bought it at a show and neglected to write down the color.

Wild Thyme OriginalsKim... you've gotta do more open mouth bears!!!!!! He's wonderful!

Oh thanks for that - I'll try it sometime. Your little chap looks really great.
I don't mean to be chaeeky but look at how you have progressed for the wee bear in your avatar.I have never seen anyone improve at such a rate(not that the wee soul is not lovely) .You are a star!!!!
