Well, these MASSIVE bears took me quite a long time to make as they are a whopping 28" high! But their new owners are absolutely delighted, and so am I! Kim's bear is called 'Mignonne' and Alex's bear is "Whisper". So adorable! [And so are the bears...]
Handmade traditional bears made in the Artisan style; beautiful materials hand sewn into heirlooms for the future.
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.

#41 Cream Mohair Ratinelle with Cream Cashmere Paws
Literally just finished this one! She's lovely. This is the first time I've used 'ratinelle' style mohair, and I really like it. There will be more bears made in this...
#40 Brown Bear with white tips and purple paws
This is a chunky little bear with a really well-stuffed body and arms. He's got an extra cute pointy nose, too!
