Hello all. The weeks seem to be flying by. I'm being kept busy with sewing and am managing some sewing for pleasure in between jobs.
This is the latest bear I've made...he's made from the 4 favourite jumpers worn by a much loved Great Grandad [two on the front and 2 on the back] and he brings my numbers up to 980...and I have more on their way :-)
I've been making little mice and have now completed these 7....each one has a little hanger so they can go on a Christmas tree.
I saw some tree decorations made from an old wooden cotton reel and thought I'd have a go. I rather like how this one has turned out...what do you think?
That's all from me for today. I will do my best to pop over to yours when I can and will just leave you with this.
Hugs,
Annie x
If only :-)




Hi Annie, happy WOYWW. I love the mice for the tree, what a great idea! Happy bear making - great total so far. Helen #1
ReplyDeleteFirstly, thank you so much for the beautiful Christmas card, it’s stunning! Those little mice are so cute and I like your cotton reel upcycling, all the ones I have are plastic, not quite the same! Hugs to you all,

ReplyDelete980 bears! Good lordy Annie, step back and look at that number, how amazing! And the few youve made for my family bring so so much comfort and memory, i know you sew with love and think they are doing good, but seriously, you dont know HOW MUCH. 🥰 i love the mice, i bet they are good carol singers, and i really love the cotton reel, how lovely a job youve made of that. Dont go dorabbit hole for hours, but Pinterest is busting with them, as beautfiul as yours - you dont need inspiration thats for sure!
