Koda

Meet Koda, a new 3.75 inch Old World bear pattern. I used vintage rayon for the first time. He turned out pretty cute. He's now on eBay waiting for a new home.

Kentucky State Fair

Old Glory won Honorable Mention at the Kentucky State Fair. The only Honorable Mention ribbon

awarded. Very happy. Next year I'm going for the blue!

Nickelby

Nickelby is a wonderful new pattern of mine. He's got a higher forehead than most of my bears, giving him a positively more bearish appearance. He's got the sloping snout, the long arms and big feet of a steiff and the hump on the back. He has it all and I figured all he needed was a simple rusty jingle bell round the neck. Nickelby

has already found a new home.

Apricot and Petal

I hand-dyed Apricot (top) a lovely shade of peach. Turned out great. Unfortunately she did not find a home on eBay so she will be moving to my etsy shop. Petal, the pale pink bear, turned out to be the happiest jolliest sort of bear I could imagine. She has found a home in Colorado.

A Couple of Cuties

Cinnamon is the brown bear, still needing a home. He is in my etsy shop.
Quinn the pink bear just found a home while on eBay.

New designs

Here are a few new pattern designs I created. Peanut is the heavily distressed little fellow, Passion is the purple bear, and Sherbet is the orange with lime green hat!

Latest Bears

I haven't posted pics of my latest bears in a while. Here are a few that I have done.
Little Boy Blue, Paradox (purple bear), Ivory (white bear), Christian (tan bear) and Buttercup (cream bear).
