    Those are beautiful. Very boyish too.

    I'm sure the boys will love them at Christmas

    Those are adorable. And I'm even more impressed that they are made from recycled goods.

    Those are really cute! I have a bunch of old blue jeans, and have been trying to decide what to do with them! I might try a bear, modeled after yours if you don't mind!

    Those are just too cute. Did you make your own pattern or use one you had bought? Dd was wondering how you did the arms - is it all one piece?

    Those are so cute! I have a bunch of jeans that I would like to make something with, but unfortunately I am not as talented in sewing as you are. I think that mine will most likely become a blanket.

    Those are really cute! I made some for dd an dgs but she lost them or threw them out. Not to say your family won't love them. My DD has mental problems big time.

    The pattern is Simplicity 5461. The arms are attached to the neckline first and then the head is sewn on...........Lori
