Max the African Flower Bulldog

Hi everyone! 

I've recently had the opportunity to try a (relatively) new Heidi Bears pattern - Max the African Flower Bulldog


As with all of Heidi's work, the pattern is clearly written, and so easy to follow. 


I did find it a bit challenging getting the stuffing proportions right - the first one (which I haven't taken photos of) looks like he's been overdoing arm day and ignoring leg day at the gym!! 


































Plus, what a cute butt ;)


Next up - Plod the Triceratops (now in progress!) and Gobi the Camel

  4. Heidi Bears is amazing - it fascinates me how one can make so many 3-D shapes based on pentagons and hexagons. You are quite the expert too now, Michelle :-)

    2. Maybe *you* should design some - after your experience you would have a good idea.

    3. I did email Heidi and ask if I could use her ideas to create some Australian animals - she particularly asked me not to for now :/
