I’m
afraid I’ve rather fallen for my latest creation. This is Dylan; all 7½ inches
of him! I knew as soon as I saw the pattern that I must make him.
Dylan is from a pattern by Sylvie Touzard (next picture). The original bear I think is made from Viscose, which I didn’t have, so I used a similar colour mohair and cut it back quite a lot.
I’ve been as true to
the pattern as I can; right down to his funny little trousers. The pattern
calls for an old sock! However, I used the end of a sleeve of an old jumper I was
going to throw out – to the same effect more or less; and then simply added
some ribbon and I also added a couple of bells. And what about that cute little
fat tummy – similar to mine right now, but that’s not why I love him so much
LOL
I love him and his cute shaped head! It must have been so difficult stitching such a little bear but he is beautiful Julia! x
ReplyDeleteOh my, he is just the most gorgeous wee man. That little tummy is so sweet, just like my Bill's, in fact I'd say it's pretty much a mirror image. lol. I would say my dear friend that you are well and truly addicted to this little task of bear making you have taken on. How wonderful and what a wonderful job you make of them all.
