So all seams are closed, and Wee Jock is all set to travel down to Blackpool and then on to India on a grand adventure. This has been an interesting experiment all round – I used a Schulte viscose for the first time, that I picked up from Susan at Bear Basics in Troon last year. I was also asked to make him a smaller version of Edwood and Woodward, but I didn’t photocopy the pattern and shrink it, I kind of visually shrunk it and played about a bit (I think his legs may be a wee bit big, but don’t tell him that ;o) ) His paws are ultrasuede, his nose is perle cotton and he has glass eyes. He’s stuffed with bouncifil and glass sand, and with his cotter pin joints quite loose, he’s nice and posable.
Unbelievably, he’s actually only a coupleof inches taller than Jack, but I guess we know who ate all the honey!!!
Speaking of Jack, day 1 of his adventures in Connemara are over here…
So darling Katy!
He's a real cutie, Katy…love that fat tummy!
Precious. And size doesn't matter to teddy bears. Their love is just unconditional. Ah, the love of a teddy bear.
Hugs
How cute!! I'm amazed by this, what a completely different kind of crafting and so gorgeous, you have a gift!
I know you've made lots of really great teddies before, but I REALLY love this one. He is SO cute! Do you sell these?
Oh dear lord the poor think inherited Jacks beer belly…. 😉
Absolutely LOVE him to bits. Beer belly and all 😛
DEar Wee Jock, I think he has been secretly been into the liquor, that Jack loves. What a character, he is wonderful.
Hugs
Oh he is so precious! I love his round tummy!
Aw, there he is! Too cute!!
i'm with you, K. it's seems visually shrunk a pattern works too, just look at him, posing upside down, brings joy to us.
I think his legs are perfect
That's really freaking adorable!!!! I love the headstand 🙂
Hope he has happy travels x
Katy he is gorgeous, and those feet are just right! Maybe he'll grow in to them.
Katy he's gorgeous and his legs are just right I'd say. He looks so cute standing on his head.
The headstand is classic. Love him!
Love wee Jock! With his large feet – will help to keep him grounded! He looks such a character…
Very cute, Katy. He has turned out wonderfully. Love that tum!
What a lovely bear. The story reminded me of someone who lost their garden gnome one night and then for the next year got postcards from him from all over the world. One day she woke up and he was back in the gsrden having been painted bronze and sporting sunglasses and a colourful beach shirt. Maybe the bear will do the same?
So cute! I LOVE his BIG feet!!!! What a sweet bear!!!!!
He's a real cutie Katy. love his big feet and his beer belly. He's very clever too, love his handstand.
Just love the pudgy little belly. Reminds me of the GS
He is so adorable! I love this fabric. It is perfect for such a small chap.
HI Katy, I'm so looking forward to Wee Jock's arrival in Blackpool. He really looks special, but I'll not let him read the recipe for making him – he would get too upset! I'll take great care of him, and he'll be a great companion on my travels (and your Mum's too of course). Everyone should look out for my blog when we get started in India – only one week now, so lenity of time to get him his jabs.
Dad
Wee Jock is adooooorable! I love his big legs — it's like he's a puppy with big feet! 😀
Ok, I have sussed out that he is going with your Dad and Mum to India and that your Dad has a blog so we could read more about him and his travels maybe? He is very cute and so is Jack, will Jack come to London in June?
I love him!!
OOOOO, just to sweet!!! I love him!! Great finish Katy!! Hugs
Oh, so cute!
He is wonderful and I am in love with his big feet. He is definitely a cutie.
Hugs
