1.5 inch Winnicott is good to go. Tried to get him to smile but he wouldn't have it...He's heading for The Ludicrously Small Art Gallery exhibition and will be sold to raise money for the Maudsley Hospital in South London.

I don't get chance to make bears often so I was particularly pleased to be asked to make this one.
As small as they are, they are fiddly and time consuming to make but it's really satisfying when you finally hold the little handful.
 


Pattern pieces...
..drawn on the reverse.
Cut out..
Pieces pared up..
Stitched round (24+ stitches to the inch!)
Turned and stuffed.
Jointed
Eyes..
Eyes and nose fur trimmed.
Silk thread nose.
Mouth stitched.
Ear fitting... Too wide?
Too close?
Just right?
Face shading and trims.
