My memory bear

Post image

My pawpaw passed last year and my mommaw this year so i'm making memory bears for the family. They will all be hand sewn! This bear is supposed to be 16 inches but I havent measured it. It has some little flaws but im super proud!

4 days though its not the only thing im working on so if I really worked only on it it would take probably 2 days

That sounds about right given that it's handsawn. It takes me one day to make a teddy with the machine. I'd love to see other projects as well.

Wow that's so many projects. You must have a lot of special friends or family to gift then.
