Alright windsong! you need to put up a CUTE WARNING in the body of your post. That way when I get the notice that there is a posting I don't open it while the wife or grandkids are around. Now all I hear is, "when are you going to do something that cute"? Well, I like it too, well done. Tom H

I'm betting he'll make it!! What a neat little critter!
Congrats and thanks for sharing...

Is this your original or did you carve it from a pattern? It's really great! I wouldn't mind trying one of those myself!

Hi Windsong,
That bear looks awful familiar to me since I have about 6 of them hanging in my shop. You been looking through my windows? Huh? Actually it looks alot like a "Butternut Bear" which is carved by Debra Coffman. I bought a couple from her and was quite impressed with the quality of her work. You did a good job!
