I think I’ll call him Howard!
I had an idea to make a bear and wanted to try an old pattern with some old fashioned homespun fabric.
He’s considered a ‘classic bear’ and I fell in love with him while I sewed.
I received these cute treat bags and the pretty mug mat from Simply by Laura HERE when I won a giveaway that Brenda had at the Rusty Thimble a couple of weeks ago. Brenda has her September giveaway going now so visit her HERE to enter!
Even her cards are pretty!
Thanks Laura!
Howard thinks the treats are his!
And I think he’s right!
I’m joining Beautiful Sunday
Amaze me Monday and
Lavender Cottage for Mosaic Monday.
Have you been sewing or crafting for Fall this week, too?

Your little Howard bear is as cute as can be. He's perfect for fall too. I was catching up on your posts. I have trouble finding Bon Ami these days. Have a good week ahead!
Howard is a perfect name! I remember the bear from Sleepless in Seattle's little boy was named Howard. Happy Harvest Day, Sis XOXO
Howard is really cute and the perfect name for him. For me every teddy bear is called Howard since "Sleepless in Seattle".
Howard is adorable. You did a wonderful job sewing him.
How fantastic to have met Howard! He's a keeper alright. . .a delightful post!
Nope, no creating going on here, but I am enjoying yours. Howard is a cutie and your giveaway treats are so nice too.
Howard is simply wonderful. He looks happy to just be Howard the bear :) your sewing talent is amazing my friend. Blessings dear Diane
That bear has personality plus! I absolutely adore his sweet face. Great job.
Have a beautiful weekend.
Howard is a sweet looking fellow, looks you right in the eye and always has a smile.
You won some nice things, I won some mug mats earlier this year and like them much better than coasters.
I've just finished 19 autumn cards for an exchange with some tea ladies and I enjoyed making every one of them.
Thank you linking to Mosaic Monday lavender sis.
Diane, I love that teddy bear. You are a very good seamstress. I do like the mug mat.Aren't there some talent ladies out there sewing...you included. I love it. xoxo,Susie
Your Howard the bear is so cute.. You a talented, love his decorations too. He is ready for fall! Cute post and photos. Enjoy your new week ahead!
Hi sweet friend! Your Howard is darling! I LOVE all of the sweet doll and bears that you make - you are very talented, Diane.
Have a beautiful week! Hugs!
Howard is adorable. Love your fun winnings. I won a pumpkin there recently.
Howard looks so sweet! :)
Susan
Howard is adorable! You are so talented. Have a wonderful week.
Diane your bear Howard is adorable! He looks perfect sitting on the pumpkin!
Oh my gosh, that's the cutest bear! Well done you. I brought two homemade bears form England back for the granddaughters here in Vancouver. (Actually, I must admit that I loved carrying them around, and actually had a good excuse for why a grown woman needs to carry two bears thru Heathrow!) Secretly, I've never outgrown teddy bears, as I suspenct many of us haven't. :D
You make the sweetest things. Your bear is just wonderful.
Howard is a cutie.No fall decorating or crafting here yet. I didn't want to rush the season and the dollhouse obsession has control over me for the moment.
Howard the bear is adorable!! Love his name...my dad and brother's name is Howard.
hugs,
Cindy
You are so talented!! What an adorable bear. I came across some fake fur that is soooo soft and bought a pattern and the fur --- now to sew it!! The pattern seems similar to your bear!! Sweet!
Classic bears like Howard are always my favourites. He's a very dapper fellow - you are a talented stitcher.
Howard is a sweetie of a bear! You are so talented! Now I'm off to try and win Brenda 's Giveaway if it's not too late to enter. I've never won a Blog Give Away yet! Maybe this time...
Have a great week!
Sandy
Howard is such a cutie, Diane! I love his checkered bow too! xo
I love Howard and even more knowing you created him!!
Howard is very handsome, and his mommy is marvellously creative!!
Happy Monday, my friend!
Hugs,
Poppy
That is a very handsome Howard. You did a great job making him.
Have a nice week
That is just the cutest bear - you are so very talented! I'm just curious, why did you add "word verification" to your comments? Some of those things are so hard to decipher! lol. I turned on my "monitor comments" feature to avoid the verification step. Just sayin'.
I just love the name you picked out. When I was little, a man who owned a cabin not far my parents was named Howard. :-) He was always fun to visit with.
:-)
Carla
Howard is so cute and beautifully made!
Have a lovely week Diane,
Ruby
I can't believe you made him! Howard is adorable and perfect for a fall mosaic!
Have a great week ;)
Howard is one handsome bear! And such a pretty collage. Orange has never looked better. :-)
Handsome hot Harold :). Ok, maybe he's not hot, but he IS adorable! And I think he deserves to keep those treats, and something tells me you do too!
P.S. FYI, I don't find your captcha to be annoying at all. The numbers/letters are easy to read.
Oh well Howard is adorable! What a cute guy and festive! He's perfect to link at the Fall Linky Party! BTW thanks for coming by and seeing my sweet boy posing and my Fences post! Come by and link Howard!

Howard is so sweet, Diane. You know, I love teddy bears and they have sentimental meaning to me. My mom collected teddy bears, and when she passed away, we were each given one. Every time the girls travel, they take grandma's bear with them.
You are really getting quite talented with sewing these precious dolls and animals.
love,
~Sheri
Oh Howard,
You are just precious, and perfect.
Diane, you have such a talent here-I remember last year falling in love with your fox family.
I always enjoy seeing your creations.
Have a lovely week-

Howard is sooo adorable! You did such a wonderful job on him! :) He looks so happy with his treat bag! Have a lovely day! xo Holly
Howard is adorable and looks just like an old fashioned teddy bear. I haven't started for Fall yet but I must! I've bought candles, warmers, and some lights but that's it so far.
you are amazing..he's adorable!
Hi Howard! Nice to meet someone cute and I love your orange ribbon tie :)
