After the slog of clearing my orders before Christmas, I felt I'd earned a little time to make the bear clammouring in my head to be created. So, this is 'Simply'. I was bursting to make a real 'teddy' teddy bear, with just a very tiny flavour of contemporary styling and this guy has been an absolute pleasure to bring to life.
He is made in very dense soft cream alpaca, with pure wool felt paw pad which I have shaded to contrast. His nose is hand embroidered in nutmeg brown to complement his colouring and he has traditional amber glass eyes with realistic black pupils. This guy is a whopping 22" in height and definitely classes as substantial! He has a classic growler tucked in his tummy, so that when he is tilted towards his new owner, he will gently growl his appreciation.

Yes I really like him Paula. It seems you've made some subtle changes but the results are lovely. He has a really gentle face.
Another success !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another lovely bear Paula-I love his colour combinations.
How on earth do you work so fast.I have just finished one head on a bear and you have done two since the new year.I am a slow worker though and hand sew all my bears.I have thought about a sewing machine but me and them don't get on.:6086:

Glad you all like him, thanks for the lovely comments! By the way, the reason I work so fast is simple, I have bills that won't get paid otherwise! :p

I am delighted you approve, I must tell you though, she has declined your offer of marriage in favour of seeking her pleasures further afield in the USA!:p

Thank you so much Yvonne! It's rare that I feel the urge to keep a bear these days, but I will be sorry to see this one go. :6022:
