Absolutely gorgeous.  The attention to detail is amazing.

Hope you don't mind me asking but how do you make the eyes open and close?

Thank you bear_wub
I will make a photo tutorial and will post it here. It will be easier to explain, that way

He is stunning!  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub I've never seen a teddy with eyes that can open and close!  I love his open mouth.  If he wasn't already sold, I'd be really, really, tempted!

Thank you so much.  A tutorial with photos would be brilliant if you're sure you don't mind sharing your techniques.
