Little Emily is Flying off to Russia!

Little Emily has found a new home in Russia!  She's the first Booh Bear to make her way Russia and I couldn't be happier!

So happy to have one of my patterns in Teddy Bear Review this month!

I just received a digital copy of Teddy Bear Review and I am speechless!  I feel so honored to have a pattern I designed featured in the magazine!   I wish Mom were here to share!  I know she would be so excited!  Her quilt patterns were published many times and it was so fun to share that excitement with her.  I feel her smiling from Heaven :O)   xoxo

Newest Booh Bear - a real labor of love!

Wow - this little one took me over 3 days on her face alone - I decided to use taxidermy eyes, needle felt eye surrounds and then re-root mohair around the eyes, as well.  Spending countless hours, I have once again vowed that it will be a while before I do this again!   I seem to forget how time consuming a project like this can be!   I love the way "Bebe Nellie" turned out, though!  Thanks Joanne Livingston (Desert Mountain Bears) for your amazing tutorials - I wouldn't have even tried to tackle these feats if it weren't for you!
