I have had so much fun being able to work on bears a bit more these past few weeks and when I am working, occasionally I get an urge to deviate from my "norm". Tootsie is certainly one of those instances where I deviated from my norm. I love antiques and I love distressed artist bears but I don't make them very often. I had this beautiful antique tulle net lace that I picked up at a local doll show a few weeks ago and it just screamed "tutu"! Being that the tulle lace has definitely seen better days, I thought it would make a cute scruffy tutu for a little distressed bear. I started with Anna Tsymbal's tummy pattern because it is so cute and fat and looks like a chubby ballerina tummy ;o) I then designed all the other parts around the tummy. When Tootsie was finished, I thought she looked like a little lamb, so I made her a tail! Not sure if she's a bear or a lamb but here she is! I hope you like her as much as I liked making her! Have a beautiful weekend! Hugs & Blessings, Janice
She is such a sweet heart.
