Keep Going Bear

Adding to the mental health theme, I wanted a bear that gave hope and love to others. This particular project is proving challenging. Is it better to embroider the words straight onto the wool? Is it better to embroider onto felt and then attach this to the body?

There’s been a lot of ideas but I’m still attempting different styles. For now though, this simple little bear is enough. He’s small enough not to take up too much room, but he’s big enough to make a difference.

Sometimes life is hard and we just need to know that it will get better, and that we need to keep going. A bear isn’t going to change that, I know, but maybe it will make a bad situation slightly more bearable. Even the slightest difference can mean a lot.

This little bear is available in my shop.

If you have any thoughts or ideas I would love to hear them!
