New Little Booh Puppy!

I had so much fun making this latest little Booh puppy!  Jenny is made of vintage Schulte German kid mohair - the kind you used to be able to find that was so dense, soft and wavy with a nice backing (not stiff).   It's so fun to work with vintage mohair -  sure wish I had more in my "stash"!   I am thrilled to report that Jenny found a home as soon as she was posted to my website today!   Her little cushion is made of Merino wool felt with antique lace, some buttons from my Mother's sewing box, and several little silk and rayon flowers that I made for embellishments.   I hope you like her as much as I do!  Have a wonderful Friday.
Hugs & Blessings, Janice

New Book by Teddy Bear & Friends features my bear on cover!

I am surprised (and honored) to find that one of my bears, Joyau, is on the cover of the new Teddy Bear and Friends Pattern Book!   The pattern for Joyau (along with patterns from 9 other artist's) is featured in this publication.   I just ordered a copy from Amazon and thought I would share the link if any other teddy bear artist's are interested ... Paw-terns Plus 2013: Teddy Bear & Friends   I hope you have a lovely Sunday!
