Welcome

I love creating things. My craft background is in upholstery and needlework and I was a prolific, but average, artist at one stage. Texture and colour have always fascinated me, so it seems natural that these inspirations and skills all combine into creating collector bears in various tone and cloth variations. Each one takes about two days to make as I do not use a sewing machine and every stitch is done by hand.

#34 Sparse Yellow String on Purple

I've been trying to source this type of fabric for a while, and finally managed to get a piece. It's really unusual and the bear has been stuffed super-firm but with a 'tender touch' belly, that makes it feel like a squidgy rubber ball. Fascinating material to work with and I hope I'll find more!
