Here is Boy-Toy. He is more toy-like in appearance than my other bears. At first I had intended to produce a more na�ve shape, but was waylaid by a photo of some baby Grizzlies that completely swept me off my feet. I was so taken by them that I sketched out a pattern using the proportions of the real baby Grizzly bears. I think I�ve come close to the shape of my charming models.

Boy toy is made of curly matted mohair and has brown glass eyes. His sparsely embroidered nose and claws are black perle cotton. He has a bit of shading on his face, paws and ears. He is jointed with a combination of disks, cotter pins and set screws and has wire support in his arms and legs. His head is double cotter pin jointed and has a slight wobble. He is weighted a bit with glass beads. His neck decoration is made of vintage rickrack, yarn and bells. He stands with just a little positioning to balance him.
