Sometimes I have the opportunity to work on bears that you may never see. Most times they are gifts for very special people in my life, but occasionally I make a bear in exchange for a beautiful mink coat. That is the exception and really depends on the circumstances. Most times I just buy the coats as I prefer not to do custom work.
However, since January I have been very busy and made 10 bears. Only 6 have been for adoption. I thought you might like to take a peek behind the scenes at some of the others.
The mahogany/black bear is Lorna, named after her owner's mom who owned the coat. The white mink was named Louie , after the owners ex-husband who gave her the coat :) Both are larger bears. Lorna is the first all dark bear I've made andI really like her. The little white bear is Whisper , who I recently sold.... this photo just shows the size difference very well between 10" and 7" bears.
The little 7" panda, was named Tickles, the nickname of the 2 yr old. granddaughter for whom she was made. She is a keepsake of her grandmother's and great-grandmother's coats. One coat was mink and the other muskrat. It's the first time I've used muskrat for one of my little bears.
The mohair bear was a birthday gift for a very special friend across the miles :)
I hope you enjoy seeing these other creations.
