SNAPPY HEAD ATTITUDE

There are lots of tricks in bearmaking. All are fun and usually easy to do. One way to give you bear attitude is to position his head at various angles.
First you must sew the male part of the snap to the center of the bottom of his head. This is where your neck gathering comes together.
Now for a bit of fun. You will note that the top of his body is basically a curve. You can create various attitudes by the placement of the female snap position. It you place it at the top of the curve the head will look straight ahead. If you place it slightly forward on the curve his head will tilt down (see illustration and photo) and, if you place the snap slightly back on the curve his head will tilt up.
His personality will be expressed in one of these positions.

REMEMBER THIS:
A blog posts everything in a sequence that is LAST to FIRST so it is always important to read the previous post before starting to work on the present one.
