Hi,
I wanted to share that I have finally ordered a pattern from Intercal! It has taken me six months to buy all the bear making supplies for a "real" teddy bear. I'm putting away the yarn and crochet hooks .....for now anyway...and will start on my first "real" bear this weekend. I have two peices of beautiful faux fur from Bear Bottoms Originals to start with.
A big thank you to everyone who has inspired me to try making a bear.
I still have some questions and may be here for help soon!
Bear hugs,
JeannieB bear_original

Oh Jeannie - that is fantastic news.   Please don't say your adorable bears aren't real, because your bears are just as real and wonderful as our mohair bears!

Enjoy!
