WOYWW....

Bears bears and yet more bears....and I'm loving it.

I made a really special bear for Catriona this last week and I have to say it is my favourite or at the very least it's one of them.....

It's made from a silk ballgown and isn't it just a gorgeous colour?  It was really lovely to make and I really loved the finished result.....he's now made his way up to Scotland and Catriona says she loves him too.

Yesterday these shirts came in the post from Nottingham...I'm to make two bears from the bottom two t-shirts and a further bear using the lilac shirt and purple tie....watch this space.

I am expecting the arrival of another parcel today with 5 shirts in it to make a further 5 bears and another customer is bringing me babygros to make another bear with. I love making each and every bear because they all mean so much to my customers and each one has his own character.

You will guess what I will be busy doing today so please expect me when you see me this week....I will do my best to visit all I can.  Hope your week is as rewarding as mine and you're all well and happy.

WOYWW.....

Well hello to all my Wednesday visitors.  It's such a special day of the week catching up with lots of creative friends all around the world ....and I love it.  It's been a week filled with promise of up and coming orders of my Memory bears....

• One lady is posting her items of clothing for 1 bear
• Another lady is bringing items of clothing for 2 bears
• and another lady is posting me 3 shirts to make 3 bears from
• But on top of that I have had a man from Motherwell in Scotland asking if I can make him 20 bears!!!!!....I never hold my breath while waiting for any of my orders to materialise [did you see what I did there?] but orders like that sure do get my heart pounding for a few minutes.

On top of that you will remember that my two little Brownies had faith in me that I could turn their Brownie hoodies into special cushions with all their badges on ....well, what a labour of love that was.

I had to remove the biggest part of all the badges I had previously sewn on to reposition them so that all the badges they had would fit on their cushions and of course sew them all back on in their new places.....

Then I had to sew the two sides together to make the cushion covers.  I am really chuffed with the results and can just imagine two little faces when they see them....it makes all the hard work so worth it doesn't it?

...the front of the one and the back of the other.....what lovely keepsakes for them eh?

That's all from me for this week..short and sweet [for me].....hope I get a gold star this week Julia :-)

Hope you all have a great week....and my orders for bears flood in soon.

Hugs,
