Wooooo started my second bear today!!...... And he might have a new mum already!!
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!
Finished my little needle felted bear last night.....not bad for a first attempt!..... And he had to be rescued half way through the making process because my Siamese cat got hold of him and he likes to suck things like that!!! Poor little bear!! .....
That's great, I am thinking of having a go at that too,
Was it hard? What did you get in your kit?
It was harder than i thought it would be.......but very addictive!.....

Don't toss it til you stuff it! You only truly know once it's stuffed

To quote Thomas Edison:
"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."
