Amigurumi Heartfelt Bear Reviewed by katherine on 2009-10-02 ****
this is a very cute and easy amigurumi bear. i especially like the fact that the head is already attached to the body. to me this makes it that much sturdier. I would like to warn everyone that most safety eyes have to be attached before you stuff the head so instead of doing the face after you're done, i would recommend doing it before you stuff the head.
