Review

I haven't posted anything in a year, and I have not been making teddy bears for awhile, but I am ready to start making them again. If I only make them for my own use, that's okay, but I will list some in my etsy store. 

First, though I would like to start a reveiw of all my past teddy bears, so I think I will post a story behind each one along with photos. I will try to keep them in chronological order. I kept a scrapbook for most of them along with a book of sketches for their design. I will start posting them tomorrow.

TOO LONG!!!!!

It has been too long since I posted anything here!!!! I am going to be starting the New Year off with more designing and creating teddy bears. I will be listing them on my etsy store, Looking Glass Moon.
But for now I would  like to revisit some of my past designs.
I will be adding more later, at least until I have new creations!

Needle Felted Teddy Bear

I have been doing some needle felting lately and decided to needle felt a five way jointed teddy bear. I have jointed him with heavy silk suture thread. He has black bead eyes and needle felted nose, mouth, eyebrows and paw pads.
Isn't he cute!

A few Bears

These teddy bears are living with me or my children for an assortment of reasons.
Some sit on my shelf awaiting finishing touches or just because I wasn't totally satisfied with the final look. A few are just waiting for me to find a home for them.
 This pair now reside in my daughter's room. She took one look at them and begged me for them, what could I do.
I listed this pair on e-bay a while back, but they failed to find a home, so now they are living in my display cabinet.
I never listed this little girl and her cat. They are Halloween themed, so I guess they will have to wait for the proper season.
 This little Christmas bear never found a home because I was not totally satisfied with her face.
This pair were so much fun for me to make, but alas they did not find homes when I listed them on etsy. I found the inspiration for them in a magazine. Teddy, cat and pumpkin are all needle felted.
Edgar Allen Poe sort of crept into my thoughts one day and I made this pair. They live with my daughter on a shelf in my grandson's room.
These cuties live with my niece in New York.
 My daughter talked me out of this little pumpkin bear.
 Once again, one of my daughters claimed this little bear.
 And finally, this little guy is my mascot. I made the hand puppet for a story time my daughter did at a book store, so now my little teddy wears it.
