May Teddy Swap

Here are the teddies my swap partner Sue and I exchanged. Neither one of us had made a teddy before. I think these teddies are very cute indeed. The sailor teddy was made by Sue and the other one is my creation.

This teddy is my second attempt actually. When my Miss. N saw the first one, she said "This looks like a mouse. Also I had never seen a teddy standing up. Teddies always sit." So I went back to the drawing board. This one has the seal of approval. And she can sit too. I liked the theme behind the bag. It has tea bags and tea cups hence the "T". The lace has teddy bears on it and hence the "bear". So it makes the bag a T-Bear bag. Oh, did I tell you that the bag was my 3rd attempt? I tried making a teddy bear shaped bag twice and was not too happy with the bags which looked like big "blobs".

My next swap is the summer theme. I am actually working on it. I re-organised my sewing table for the n-th time yesterday. Now I have to look for body parts and the other materials to finish the pindoll! Will post pictures when my swap partner receives her pindoll.

Heera, they're marvelous! And practice MUST make perfect because both your tiny bear AND the T-Bear Bag are perfection! Tell Ms. N. she needs to try making a bear, too! I bet she could!

They are both adorable! Love the theme you gave yours and the fabric.

I had to put the comments on blog on moderation due to spamming. And I accidently deleted your last comment. Oh my, I am not competent to moderate comments! I'm sorry!
