This is my prototype bear. I have 2 orders already but they have to have embroidery. Where do you think I should put it? Tummy or feet or both?

Nicely done, ~hugs~

THANKS to everyone for all their very positive comments and all your great ideas. I think a heart is a great idea 😄

At Easter time on facebook, I saw lots of rabbits, people were doing some type of monogram on the chest middle. Your bear is adorable, love that fabric too. There are lots of embroidery circle applique patches you could do that with the monogram on it? I would do a practice one to see what looks most appealing.

Lovely bear. I think the position of any embroidery depends on what is required. Don't overdo it, though, it could spoil the effect!

You are so right!

That's a cute bear. I would embroider a heart with the child's name below the heart, on the tummy.
Hugs, Lidia

Great idea

He is absolutely beautiful. For me, if you are using a patterned material I would only do the feet as I personally think it would be too much. How about the child's name across the tummy area? Good to 'see' you here Fiona. Hugs Sarah

Absolutely adorable! Definitely on the tummy, but some on the feet will look nice too!

Super cute bear! Did you create the pattern?
I think that embroidery would be great on both the feet and the tummy. There were some paw print designs floating around here for a while. Way cool!

Thanks. This is a Simplicity pattern. Really easy too 😃

How cute is this! I like the idea of both, but you could do some one way and some the other way. I too think a little heart on the chest would be cute. If you digitized the heart you could make it unique and your own signature design, kind of like a trademark. :)

Very cute!

so cute

very cute!

Gorgeous bear!

On the tummy. Cute bear

Cute! I guess it depends on how much embroidery you need/want to put on it. If it is just a name, I go tummy.

he looks so Awesome..Love him...On tummy

I vote both :);)it looks awesome hugs

I have seen similar bears done in pink or blue for new babies with the baby's name on the tummy, the weight on one foot and the length on the other foot. Your bear is very cute. I think you can put embroidery where ever you want.

What type of embroidery are they wanting - that will likely drive where you put it. Cute Bear!

A heart is a lovely idea.
