        I love hearing how you all come up with names!  Yes, I have to wait until the bear is finished too.  I once tried to name a bear in advance.  I had this lovely cream colored mohair with purple tips.  I was going to call her Lilacia.  But when the bear was finished it was definitely a boy! LOL!

        Mandy that is so cool about your other half’s hobby!  Talk about bringing history to life!

          Hi Phyllis!  I’m sorry for the long delay!  I just posted a video of the threads I prefer for hand sewing and closing seams, and how I choose which color to use!

            Sure Phyllis, that should work just fine!  I usually have a half a dozen colors on hand that match close enough.   I’m out of town right now, but when I get back I’ll take a photo of the threads I keep on hand.

                Chris I understand!  It can be scary to trim that fur after all of the work you have already put into your bear. The 12″ bear has a video showing you how I am trimming Marco, the 12″ bear. Go slowly, trim just a little at a time. You get better and more confident with each bear you do. 🙂

                  Hi Chris!

                  I’m so happy to have you join us.  I think it’s great that you were able to learn from books and magazines.  I hope you enjoy the classes here.  If you think of a class you would like to see, please be sure to mention it in the “Class Requests” forum.  Which class are you hoping to work on first?
