A Little Bear in Striped Trousers

October 24, 2014

I made this little bear for a new bebe.

I went into this with delusions that I'd make a beautiful, heirloom teddy bear -- old-fashioned and soft mohair and shiny glass eyes. But when I set to work, this funny little guy is who I ended up with.

Not exactly the perfect Winnie-the-pooh bear I'd imagined, but a bear nonetheless.

A bear with his own charms & his own striped trousers.

We just returned from London (and a side-trip to Paris) & there are things I want to share from the trip.
I also need to finish posting the last few Eleanor pieces.

More dispatches soon!
