Another week and I've made more bears along side shortening many pairs of trousers and altering a dress so here's my latest bears...
They were made in memory of a much loved gent and are now bringing comfort to a family up in Nottingham.
Neet asked last week how many bears I'd made now so I've been having a count up and have printed off the latest page of them...
.....these bring my numbers up to 265 and they are now spread from Scotland down to Wiltshire and some have even travelled to overseas countries too....I really love the thought of Annie's love spreading over the world. Each bear has a lot of love put into them when I make them and I know many of them have brought a lot of comfort to their new owners. I take a photo of every bear I make and now have a file full :-)
I hope you have enjoyed your visit this week and will leave me a little message so I know you've called in and as soon as I can I will aim to pay you a visit to see what you've been up to this week.
Hugs,
Annie x

That's an amazing amount of extra love and comfort to spread Annie, I love how you have taken pictures to catalogue them all. An excellent way to promote them although you won me over with the very first one I saw..!

That's an amazing amount of love. WOW I bet you can almost create them in your sleep. Did you see the Facebook post on the button bracelet? (Buttons from a loved ones clothing). I've also enjoyed your posts on all your grands. Hard to beleive how fast they are growing. You are blessed to live so close. Happy WOYWW thanks for the visit.

Thank you for counting up your bears - that is some number of stitching! How lovely that you keep a photo memory book of your bears and where they are all now residing.
Here's to reaching the 300.
