Hugglets...not long now!

I am still finishing the teddies for Hugglets.  Since my head injury, I cannot managed sustained effort in the way I used to.  Therefore, I'm behind with photographing the bears!

I have a side profile photo of a large polar bear that will be coming with me and a photo of one of my little whimsical bears.


He's a biggie!  he is made from beautiful, white Schulte alpaca.  He has 6 joints including a double neck joint and a wire armature. He can stand on all fours.

I hand dyed the German mohair used to make Little Miss Sunshine.  She is wearing a broderie anglais onesie and can stand unaided.

  1. Oh Sue your little Miss Sunshine is the cutest little girl. I love her onesie .
    The skill you show in your big white bear is wonderful. Good luck with Hugglets.

    1. Many thanks! I've been making bears for a few years now. They seem to create themselves - I mean their own personalities. I don't seem to have much control over them. :)
