https://bit.ly/2ECdU3u It always makes me super happy to see a client setting up their own handmade business incorporating my designs. Look at these gorgeous memory bears made beautifully by Claire from the Jingle Bear Sewing Pattern. She told me..."I just wanted to share these Jingle bears I made recently for a lady who had lost her husband and she wanted bears for her and her daughters.  She was over the moon with them and loved the traditional style of the bear pattern." "I personally think your patterns are the best for memory bears, lovely size and sit beautifully for display."Thank...

Meet Glacé our furry Polar Bear who suffers with extremely cold paws! He needs his super cosy boots and scarf to help keep him warm!This cuddly polar bear in boots is made from ivory coloured long pile fleece and a small amount of red and blue Sherpa fleece fabric. He has moveable limbs made with ordinary button and thread joints and is quite fast and simple to create. Before you know it he’ll be made and ready to hug! https://bit.ly/2EapCFz  

Recently my daughter's fiancé celebrated a milestone birthday and as he's a huge football fan I decided to make him a sports shirt memory bear in honour of his team. I used the Jingle Bear Sewing Pattern as I wanted to make a hat and scarf too. I fussy cut an old team sweatshirt and took part of the ribbing to make the hat. Pompey Bear now has his own display shelf sat on a team signed football!A huge thank you to Sue for the sports shirt bear styling idea - it works like a dream! https://bit.ly/2Ihehr4
