'March'ing in....

I very rarely make a real, traditional teddy, but felt the urge, and Daisy was the result.  Like most arctophiles, I first fell in love with the old English and German classic teddies. So, she has traditional drumstick legs, one-piece arms and a large hump. I wanted to attempt some gentle aging techniques, to give her  the feel of having lived a life.  She has been sanded, plucked, trimmed and gently shaded.  She is wearing a lovely, ivory silk dress.
Daisy has been adopted.

Wow, it is SO warm and sunny today...just like a summer's day.  I can hear a bee buzzing outside my studio window!  I'm sure it cannot last, but is very welcome, all the same.

Hugs to all!
