This is Dubby, my first fur bear made from my own pattern.  I still have a way to go before I will get this design the way I want it but I think he turned out well considering it's only the second "stage" of the pattern.
He is up for adoption and I have more photos on my blog.
Thanks for looking and let me know if you have any helpful hints!

I love Dubby's head! (Don't tweak that part of your design too much  )

Is that a synthetic plush fur, or something else? (It looks quite dense, and not exactly easy to sew. Well-done!)

Diana, I really like the large pawpads on your bear, and his large body shape too !!!   He turned out fantastic for only the 2nd stage.  You are doing great !  :clap:

Thanks so much for the encouragement everyone!
Becky, the fur is synthetic and it wasn't so much very dense as it was long and wavy. It was terrible trying to keep it all out of my seams!    
Tammy, it's funny you mentioned that about the paw pads. I was worried about them being too big, especially on the fore paws.    But I do like the big rear paws!

The large paws would be great too if you ever decided to do sculpted toes  !  Forgot to mention the great nose.  I still hate doing that part LOL.
