The Teddies are Breeding

Yesterday, I went into town and bought some more toy filling, so that these two little ones could be finished up.  Although, they are all basically done the same, they all end up with slightly different expressions.  I love doing the heads, especially the ears.

I also did another "Teddy".  The boys weren't happy because the buttons I used only had two holes rather than four.  They reckoned it changed the look of his face.  They will just have to go with it, as all the buttons have come out of my button tins.  I'm using what I've got.

I am not making any more teddies this week, although I do have the yarn to do another style.  I will do that in a few weeks I think.  Time for something different for  a few days at least.

Those teddies are amazing (regardless of button holes!)! The only thing I can do with yarn is entertain kittens.

"Mr Bean" - LOL LOL Loulee!! I see what you mean! Jane, your teddies are so cute. I know what your boys mean though, about the buttons for eyes - four holes do give a different look than two. Whenever I've had to use two hole buttons for eyes, I can never decide whether to have them horizontal or vertical!
