I had mentioned in another thread that I was looking for a fine curved needle without paying the high postage charged for mail order ( 1.50 for the needles and 5.00 for shipping).  For those of you who might be looking for the same thing, for those tiny mini bears....I finally found them locally.
They are at Hobby Lobby in the section with the embroidery flosses, but they are actually curved BEADING needles.  They are not in the beading section where one might think they would be...that's too easy!!! :lol:
They are size 10, so very thin and just perfect for those tiny bears.  Yeh!!

Great info, Nanc bear_laugh Thanks!!

There's a much better supply of beading stuff than sewing stuff here in Hogtown. I've found it hard to track down curved needles with small diameter shafts, but the beaders ought to be just about right.
