Back to bears today. Introducing Mary. I have made her a larger version of my favourite pattern. She is just about 8.5". The original pattern was 5.5", I then shrunk it to 4.5". Below are the three sizes + Mary on her own.

Some new bears for you. The first two are Malachi & Finbar, from my favourite pattern.
The next two are from a Vivianne Galli pattern, which I am very pleased with. As yet they are unnamed!!!
