Well we survived the first bear making class. It is amazing how much preparation went into it.
It is the first time I have cut out 14 bears in one go before. Cutting out is the worst bit of bear making, I think.
The bear everyone was making was based on Buttercup’s pattern approximately 13 inches. Made with ratinee curly mohair.
The class started at 9am and by lunchtime everyone had sewn all the pieces and had a cute bear face staring up at them.
After hours of work there were five new bears born.
Everyone fell in love with their creations.
Now everyone just needs to decide whether they have created a boy or a girl and make clothes or give their bear a nice bow to suit. So well done everyone. I think everyone enjoyed it and there is already talk of making more bears so these five little bears could soon have little friends sat beside them.
Thanks for reading
