In this corner, wearing 'jammies covered with cutesy little penguins; standing 5 ft. 2 inches and weighing 122, Vee the "Bearmaker". And in this corner, ladies and gents, dressed in the ... uhm ... rather strange colour of tinned peas .... barely tipping the featherweight scale (literally; unless there is some steel shot in this guy's belly it would be impossible to feel him in the palm of your hand!) and standing at a diminutive 2 3/4 tall, "Baaaaby Face" Gerber! Sitting, he is only 2 1/4 .... and he seems to be sitting ... resting .... getting ready....
Two days in a row now they have faced off and still the title is undecided .... twice she has knocked the stuffing out of this little guy and twice he has rebounded. Today.... the final match. Who will be victorious? Who will walk away with the title? .... . Tune in for the stitch by stitch replay of ....what the heck am I talking about? sorry, got carried away for a second or two there......
He is done to the stage of picci'ing ... Vikki and Maggi know exactly what that means. It means there are still some unfinished and even,( gasp) open areas on the back side where you can't see them! Still need to make a little pouch for the steel shot... but want to show you a pic anyway! I can finish up later... 'course, I aways say that and then, off I go and begin another little guy, or doll, or some other project ... leaving openings .. (where is that "sheepish grin" emoticon?) ... I am such a procrastinator .. unless I am sending them to new homes, and then of course, I am right on it. Busy with invisible stitching immediately. Yes, indeed, I can and do finish when there is a need to do so.

OH, Vee, he is just adorable! That little face is to die for. I am in awe that you you can do such beautiful work in such small scale.
I love your little sweet pea Gerber! I bet he won the battle with his cute baby bear face :D . You are such a wonderful 'Beartist'(bear artist :D )

Hi there, decided I had better come and see what you have been up to. I just LOVE your blog, you had me laughing so much! I loved it all. This lil bear is sooooo sweet, what a lovely little face, I do hope you did finish him! :o) And I can totally understand your love for those cat picture, they are just amazing!! Wow! Your bear classes sound horrid! Poor you having to spend so much on your 'free' class. I hope you will end up feeling like you have learnt something! Would so love to have you in my classes *sigh* why do I keep meeting such lovely people who DON'T live just around the corner! :o)
