Welcome to the 129th edition of the Teddy Web Gazette. In this issue you'll see our new "Soft Noses" as well as news about the Gold Coast International Teddy Bear Fair, our Moon Bear competition, our upcoming raffle & more! Happy Bear Making! Cindy & Derek. http://www.bearycheap.com


The softest Noses in town!

These are little beauties!....If you find embroidering noses a little bit difficult, then our new "Soft Noses" are for you.
Made from a soft rubbery material, they are far superior to the old plastic noses with a much more natural feel.

"Soft Nose" - Triangular
"Soft Nose" - Nostrils

Available in 2 styles (Triangular & Nostrils)
3 sizes in each style available 15mm , 20mm
& 25mm - just $2.50 each

"Soft Noses" have a safety back which means they are perfect for bears made for children.
The plastic safety washer snaps on the stem & cannot be removed. The backing is very similar to our "Alive Eye" backing.
"Soft Noses" need to be inserted before stuffing the head. They look great on synthetic & mohair bears!

Tips to help your entry

2) Try not to make your pattern too complicated, as the pattern must be able to be reproduced by a wide variety of bear makers with varying degrees of skill.

3)Your pattern does not have to be too realistic, we are looking for photogenic qualities too.

4) Please ensure you use "Beary Cheap" fabrics, as we need to be able to provide kits using our fabrics.

Please note: The pattern will be completely produced in saleable form by Beary Cheap.
The winning entry will be required to provide their pattern & photo, so that we can produce the patterns.
