Brendan made his first bear--Paddington.
I think he has done a wonderful job. He cut, sewed, stuffed and finished it with only a little help from me. I did the pinning and I sewed in the foot pads and the head gusset, but that's pretty much all I did. As I was looking it over I told him I was really impressed, and that it was hard to believe an eight year old made such a nice bear. The bears I made as a kid didn't look so nice. Do you know what my darling child said to me? He said,"That's because I have a really good professional bear maker teaching me."

That is just wonderful, and please tell your son from me that I think his bear is just super dooper.
That is brilliant! He has a talent and I am guessing there will be a lot more from him soon. Well done Brendan :clap: :clap:
