Hello,

I've recently been seeing so many bears with Adorable little belly buttons. What do you guys use to make them? I've tried to have a close look but no idea how they're done.

Any one want to point, or shove me in the right direction? lol

Hi Richy

I make dolls and maybe some of the doll info could help.  Check out this site...or perhaps type in belly button for  bears and see what you get...     Personally I don't think the belly button in the photo is great... but, perhaps you can adjust a tiny piece of mohair to make one that you like.  When I did mine on a doll...I did not have it puckered as this person recommends.. ... just sort of folded under some corners of a small piece of fabric and then ran the needle though the backside of the material holding some corners together.. I was using some doe suede... so it does have some creases, but sort of made it a bit more...erm...tidy looking, if you get my drift.
