CREAM WITH THAT ????

Well food names have always played a large part in naming my wacky bears, and my latest Grog is not going to be left out.  I just love Banoffee Pie with its thick layer of whipped cream and a slight dusting of finely grated chocolate, gosh my mouth is watering already and I have only come on to post to tell you about my latest Grog called Banoffee.  Better get on with it :-) .............

Banoffee Grog is a very chubby Grog (I think he likes banoffee pie too) who is made from a rich chocolate brown with a banana yellow and cream tip, German mohair.  His big feet and droopy inner ears are a lovely chocolate brown cashmere fabric.  You can't miss his huge multi coloured bulbous nose and very cheeky grin.  Banoffee is 10 inches tall, well he would be if he could stand LOL!!! he does prefer to either sit on the edge of a shelf, occassionally he sits upright for an alert look but every now and then he prefers the laid back approach and just watches the world pass by.



Well I am going to dash off now as the pie I have in my fridge is calling my name very loudly, there is no ignoring it anymore. Its so sad really I will have to give into temptation .......  BYE!!!!

ITS BEEN AWHILE

I just can't believe where the time has flown too since I last posted.  Its been a busy few weeks, I have been beavering away creating new bears for the Hugglets show in London on Sunday.  I have a new range of bears to show and I will be launching my new series of online stories  "URCHINS - Guardians of The Forest".

Hopefully before the show on Sunday I will put a preview onto my blog of some of the bears I will be taking to the show.

Here are three wacky bears I have made just recently, two are adopted but just to tease, one of them is one who will be having a trip to London.  Can you spot which one it might be heehee!

GROGS AND MORE GROGS

I am busy making new Grogs at the moment, and thought you might like to see two I completed on Friday.

Juniper is made from a lovely lilac, wavy kid mohair, his feet and inner ears are made from my own handmade wool felt and hand dyed to give a batik effect in shades of purple, lavender, lilac and blue.  Juniper Grog is 10 inches tall with a really large bulbous nose embroidered with a hand dyed cotton to match his foot pads.  Juniper is very lucky to be going to live in Texas.


A very happy looking Juniper!



A cheeky boy Juniper Grog!



Such a coy smile!


Little Squirt is also a 10 inch Grog, who is made from a pastel blue on a cream backing, very wild looking mohair.  His inner ears and paw pads are made from my own hand made wool felt which I have hand dyed to get a batik effect in shades of turquoise, pale blue, blue and a touch of lime green.  His big nose is embroidered with a hand dyed cotton to match his colourful feet.  There is no hiding these chubby bears big cheeky grins.  Little Squirt is joining Juniper in Texas.



Little Squirt is certainly not camera shy!
