just wondering what size range is considered as a miniature bear?
also posting the bear i made from the second pattern i've designed(the first..lets just say it wasn't good)
this bear is 7cm when sitting, 9cm when standing...
You may get differing opinions on this one, but the miniature group that I belong to considers a mini to be 4" and under. I know for some of the competitions they say 5" and under , I can only tell you what our group stipulates.
Very cute bear for your first design, keep up the great work
big hugs

I like this one, he's so cute! Nice fabric, what's that? It's so fluffy ^^
My miniatures are usually 3 & 1/2 inches to 4 inches. And I think that's a pretty good size to aim for when making a mini. I have done even smaller...less than 3 inches...very difficult though!
I used to make 5 inch bears when starting out...and I consider them minis but I prefer them to be smaller. A true mini is probably 4 inches and under...but it can be a wee bit bigger than that. Hope that helps you. Love your bear!

I don't consider mine miniature in the true sense, mine are around 4-6 inches. But I still chat in this section as the details and things are similar and I still do call them my mini bears. But I know they aren't exactly In competitions here the section I enter is under 6 inches, mini, but maybe that is done because of limited entries.
I've always considered minis to be 4 inches and under, most of my bears are 2 to 4 inches....
I usually put them in the category of up to 5 inches for miniatures
and micro mini's up to 2 inches.
The smallest I have ever made is 1 and 1/2... and that's small enough for me.
Cute!! I love the longpile you used.
