Here is a quick snap of my stand at the Hugglets Show last Sunday. I thought you would like to see the bears displayed, just before the doors opened. I’m really happy to say that they have all found new homes. My thanks to all my loyal collectors who travelled many miles (some even flew in especially!) it was great to meet you all….

Anastasia and Little Wistful
As you probably know, I love making my cream/ivory bears, I find I can get so much definition in their faces,and these two are no exception, but as you can see are quite different in size and shape.
Anastasia 18ins (left) is quite a lady, her gorgeous face has been meticulously hand scissor shaped and delicately shaded, I have used the softest dusty pink embroidery on her nose and paw/footpads all inspired by the wonderful French embellished net I found to use for her collar! I even hand painted the wooden buttons/beads to compliment, and also hand stained her appliqued ultra-suede heels to match! Lots of work…but I loved every minute!
Little Wistful….in contrast is just 10ins, and a new style, with a slightly larger head shape and a much more clipped back muzzle, again with all the detailing,and hand scissoring to create his dear little thoughtful face! He is quite loosely jointed,more softly filled (new for me!) and will happily sit in the palm of your hand. He wears a little collar that I felted with silk strands, and secured with a ceramic button.
