Shay's Polar Bear

After adjusting the limb length and the hump to neck angle, i cut the Polar coloured faux-fur and got to work.

With shorter arms and legs, he has no problems standing whatsoever.

Looking forward to his new life in Nottingham.

Very happy bear.


Some delicacy of head was lost using this fabric although scissor-sculpting helped a lot. One day i will  position eyes correctly. I hope!


I shall crack on with his smile and claws and perhaps do a bit more snipping. (Oh! And make him a tail, ofcourse!) I'll try a shorter pile next time, too. But on the whole, I'm quite optimistic that pattern-making is not beyond me.
