Two more new bears this morning. I have to say I am quite pleased with this pattern, so much so, I have upsized it a few inches!!! Bradley is the bigger version.
Bradley 11" mohair


Riley 8.5" mohair

This bear is another "newbie", but I have to say not one that "grabs" me. So it look's like she will be a real OOAK. No more like her.
Her lacy shawl is made from a vintage doily, clasped with a vintage brooch. She is quite a heavy bear, filled with heavyweight poly fibre & steel granules, weighing a hefty 1.5 lbs.

I got my blogs mixed up yesterday. Posted on elscountrymakes.blogspot.com that I would be posting some bears, made from an older pattern, that I would not be making from, as I now had a new pattern. These bear were to be posted at reduced prices to make way for the new bears, of which I posted earlier this morning, so sorry for the mix up.
I have been taking stock of my way with the bears, I shan't be doing big bears anymore, or really fluffy one's, only if I am specifically asked for that type.
My bears have changed over the years, & they do say a change is as good as a rest, I really enjoy making the bears for jenny-handmadehappiness.blogspot.com because I don't make that type of bear for anyone else. Jenny loves that look & they are made exclusively for her lovely shop.
