Georgie, a real Yankee Doodle Dandy

Georgie, a real Yankee Doodle Dandy

So, here is Georgie, a real Yankee Doodle Dandy.  He has shed that gold lame' collar in favor of a patriotic bow with stars and stripes and a Georgie-sized patriotic pinwheel.

Georgie is available for adoption on Etsy (www.etsy.com/listing/76718461/georgie-a-12-inch-chenille-teddy-bear).

                                                      

Sneak Peek

Here is a sneak peek at my newest bear.  He is made of chenille in an antique white.  I don't think the gold collar will be his final costume.  I think he is feeling patriotic.  I will post pictures of  him in his new outfit in the next few days.

Introducing Rosarita

Well, here is the little (6 inch) bear I have been creating for the past few days.  I don't think I will be making any more bears smaller then 9 inches.  My clunky hands with carpal tunnel syndrome and my less than perfect eyes are not cut out for making tiny bears.  I applaud all those of you who do it.  Anyway, here are a few pics of little Rosarita (and her empty wine glass -- whoops, she drank all the Sangria).

Elinora Goes to Her New Home: Plus, Sneak Peek at 6 Inch Bear

Elorina

Little Elinora was packed up this morning and is now on her way to her new home in Indiana.

6 inch bear, as yet unnamed

Here is a sneak peek at the little (for me) 6 inch bear that I have been working on for the past few days.  I think I will stick to 9 inches as my smallest bear.  My clunky hands with carpal tunnel syndrome don't seem to be suited for creating tiny bears.

Introducing Elinora

I'd like to introduce you to Elinora.  I made this pattern about two years ago when my neighbor's son was three.  At that time, he was really into elephants and I was going to make one for his birthday.  Well, I never did.  But now, with the popularity of elephants, I resurrected the pattern to create this little darling.
