Well I have finally finished :dance:
I have Toby and Tinker.Toby is 5.5 inches high and Tinker is 3.5 inches high.I was hoping to make a smaller bear than Tinker but my printer decided to play up so I couldn't shrink my patterns.Tinker is a new pattern and I was quite pleased how he turned out.I now have a new printer so it will be my next project to try and do a bear smaller than 3.5 inches as I haven't managed that yet.Hope you like them.

This is my challenge pair more of a challenge to myself a very much smaller bear than I have done before with my horse sculpt I have been working on for a while it is paper mache and was a lot of fun to do. I haven't given them a name.

bear_wub WOW, I am overwhelmed! What a lot of lovely bears. Jalina, I love your bear and rabbit. Eva, Dad and boys is so charming. Goldelas, your babies are so sweet. Cheryl, Puzzle is a perfect bear for Picasso...how clever of you. Pauline, Primrose is a real sweetie. Joanne, Munds and Windelman are perfect. What a great idea! Tindle bears, my son would have loved those bears as much as he loved peanut butter and jelly. Laurie, Toby and Tinker look like they want a hug. (and I would be happy to hug them!) Bearylovely, I can't say I have ever imagined a bear on a horse...Good job on both.
I hope I didn't miss anyone. I could look at these bears for hours. What a bunch of talented ladies...
