Acorn - a new bear for Autumn

 Please meet 6.25" Acorn made from recycled mink fur.  He comes with the leaves and little acorns I needle felted for him .   He is available on my website HERE .

Good News !

 I know some of you have been wondering how my appointment went at the Oncologist  & Endocrinologist .  I am thrilled to say that it was wonderful news.   My cancer was Stage 1 very low risk so no further treatment is needed at this time.  I will get more tests done in 6 months to see how things look then .  I just need to have my medication lowered as I am too hyperthyroid .  I am so thankful that the news was so positive.   The Edoncrinologist is sending me for tests for another issue he was curious about.  But, I think that will all work out ok.


I'm working a new bear and hope to have it available later this week . 

Thanks for all the prayers :)

Meet Arctica

My newest creation, 6.5" Arctica who found a home very quickly.  I have to admit I seriously considered keeping this bear.  He just tugs at my heart :)

Back to a routine

I love this time of year !  The weather is cool and I feel creative.  It is an exciting time of change and a bit of uncertainty for all of us.   My daughter started high school, and my son began college. My son turns 18 this Sunday,  I can't believe it !   I am waiting to meet the oncologist next week so I can get on with things. 

I function better when I can get into a routine, so as the kids headed off to school this week I headed to my sewing room . I have a new bear well underway and will likely have it ready in the next few days.  



 

Finally....meet Ty

He is 6.75" of recycled mink fur and looking for a new home :)  Learn all about adopting him HERE

A little delay

The bear I mentioned has been finished for a couple of days and I had hoped to list it by now.  However.......  my computer completely crashed Friday night .  It was bad this time.  The computer needed to be reformatted meaning NOTHING could be recovered . I lost everything from the past few months - since my last backup.  Again proscratination got the best of me.  To make it worse, the files I had backed up for my business can't be read.  So I am slowly reinstalling programs, rebuilding my mailing list, re-creating my hang tag designs etc.   Bear with me, I hope to have this sorted out in the next day or so.  Or, I may be shopping for a new computer :(  

Bear Therapy

I didn't realize how therapeutic making bears really is !  I have been working on one for the past couple of days and it just relaxes my mind so much.  It is the first bear I've made in almost 2 months.  Where did the time go !!  Watching the fur transform from an vintage coat into a cuddly , sweet faced bear is such a amazing thing.  I feel so lucky to have this job. 


Hopefully this little furry friend will be ready to look for a new home soon.  It  just needs an ear and some finishing touches .
