[@vickiestewart7394]

Why do I feel like I've just had a cup of coffee after I've watched one of your tutorials? They're so... energizing! I MAY be able to do this one for my niece's baby (being born next month) for NEXT Christmas, if I make a few practice bears next summer, LOL! You make it appear so easy and doable. It only took a couple of tries to get a gnome done, so I'll give this one a try, too, cuz I'm convinced you have the best methods and tips out there and I LOVE all your results!

[@PattiJGood]

Vickie, thank you so much. That is a great idea for a baby room decor.

Oh WOW!!!! Coca-Cola bear 🐻. I kept wondering what you were gonna come up with next. This is great!!! I love that you could use any type of fleece fabric to customize it for different people. I have 1 question/help. What is plush fleece. I only see anti pill and blizzard. Thank you. I just love him ❤ 😍

[@PattiJGood]

Thanks. I gave a friend of mine one with a coke bottle ornament in his arms. This is the plush fleece I get. Its realy soft with a fur look www.joann.com/pure-plush-fleece-fabric-solids/zprd_16909848a.html

[@patriciavavra7375]

Another great one, love him. I have always assumed that you use the low setting on your glue gun. Am I right?

[@PattiJGood]

Thanks Patricia. My glue gun only has high on it. I know it looks like I don't get burned, but I do all the time.

[@patriciavavra7375]

I do, you just can't see my face when I burn myself. 😂😂😂😂😂

No sew bear ? 4.25 mins begins to sew bottom of fabric !

[@PattiJGood]

Oops, guess I missed that. I really meant no sewing machine. Good eye. Merry Christmas.

[@cherrylee1103]

he is so cute. he needs a little can of Coke.

[@PattiJGood]

Cherry, that is so funny. I bought a bottle of coke and I had it in his arms, and my family talked me out of including it just in case I got in trouble with copyright. I did give him to a friend of mine for Christmas and I did put the coke bottle in his arms.
