Ninja-Bear, Bear-Ninja!

Ninja-Bear, Ninja-Bear,
Sneaking here, peeping there,
Where's he hiding? Could be anywhere!
Oh, where is Ninja-Bear?

He's... heeeere!


Is he a bear in a ninja suit, or a ninja in a bear suit?

Bear-Ninja (or Ninja-Bear) will never reveal the answer, even if you were fortunate enough to be able to catch hold of him!

Sneaky and mysterious, he could be hiding in your bowl of cereal, or laundry basket right now and you'd never know he was there!

Ninja bear is so cute he's deadly!

Ninja Bear has popped up as a puppet:


A plushie:


He's quite numerous on T-shirt designs!


*These and more avaliable from RedBubble*

And now he can be all yours in the form of this adorable hand made phone charm!


Which is up for sale right now on Etsy!

This Lil Ninja Went To Market...

But first, this lil ninja stayed home...

I asked my Mum to check my Ninja Puppet tutorial for mistakes and while she was at it, she made a ninja puppet!
But not just any ninja, he's a mini tomato ninja finger puppet!



Isn't he cute! X3
As you can see he's tiny, and very good at hiding among tomatoes.
If you want to make one just use my free Ninja Glove Puppet pattern but greatly reduced.
glue on the felt and don't add a lining, tho he'll prbably still need a bit of stuffing in his head!

And please folks, watch out for mini ninja lurking in your veggies! 0_0

It's ninja all round again today, this Lil Ninja is up for sale on Etsy now!



He's one of many slightly miss-shapen but totally lovable Ninja prototypes that have been popping up everywhere here!
It's funny really, I managed to make a complex toy like oscar almost completely right first time, but getting this simple lil ninja's shape right is proving most taxing! ^^"
So, expect more ninja prototypes on Etsy in the future! ;)

Big Ninja, on Etsy!

One of my toy prototypes is up for sale on Esty now!

I made Big Ninja as a test for a toy, he didn't quite look how I wanted him too, but he's still an awesome ninja and deserving of a good home! X3



There's lots of other stuff for sale too, so please check it all out! ^^

Free Ninja Puppet Sewing Pattern!

After making some pretty complex toys I decided I wanted to relax and design something quick, fun and easy, the result was a ninja glove puppet!

He amused me so much I decided to take the oppertunity to make a free tutorial of how to make him so I could share the ninja puppet goodness with the world! \ ^_^ /

He's really easy to make so even novice sewers can have a go, and if you have any problems or feedback about my tutorial, please let me know!

Here's the cover to the pattern booklet so you can see him.
Sorry for the rubbish photos, the light was bad by the time I finished making him! ^^"

You can download the pattern and instructions on how to make him on the Extra page.

Please feel free to tell your friends about this tutorial, or write about it on your blog or forum, spread the word! ^^
