Lots to do!

tbt magazine

new mohairs

lots going on at the moment! ruby and violet were featured in the 200th issue of teddy bear times magazine, enjoying a jubilee tea party. violet has now been adopted and has gone to live in sigapore but ruby is still available through bearpile.com.
         new delivery of lovely mohair arrived today from christie bears, can't wait to get cracking, two weeks holiday from work gives me plenty of time to make.
Lastly, just booked for another demo at Hobbycraft Bridgemere on August 5th, so come along if you're in the area.

Treacle

 This is Treacle, my newest bear on bearpile.com.
She is 8.5 inches tall and made of distressed, curly gold mohair.
one of a kind and 100% handsewn in the uk.
How can you resist?

Busy, Busy, Busy!

New bears in the pipeline, more traditional than of late  and maybe with a
bit of experimentatioin with faces. Hoping to book some fairs for later in the year, maybe crafts
at Arley Hall and possibly Telford Bear Fair if im feeling brave!
Check back for more news on new bears and also a chance of another demo at Hobbycraft, Bridgemere.

Bedlam bears (literally)

hi everyone, newest bears for you to see today. this is lacey, named after lacey turner, from my fave 

show, Bedlam.

She is 11 inches tall and made from gorgeous lilac sparse mohair.
I found some great lace to make a collar for her and some lovely little net purple butterflies.
She is now available for adoption on bearpile.com.



 This little one is mini violet, an experiment in scaling down
to a smaller version of some of my other designs. She loves a
good yummy cupcake and holds one in her paw!

Another new member is Rose a 8.5 inch bear in a pale pink mohair, wearing the keys to your heart around her neck. also available on bearpile.com
