Odd Dotty


I have something to share! I make teddy bears, it's a very peaceful occupation. One that keeps me slightly sane.
A little about me and my therapy... er... ahem I mean one of my teddy bears.
His name is Ol' Plain and Brownish, because he is.
But don't let the fur fool you, this little guy is deep and thoughtful. Plain and Brownish he may be... but inside beats a poet heart. He feels deeply and applies his beautiful spirit to the wounds of the sad world, he is after all a teddy bear. It is his calling. He is about 8 inches tall, (half of this is his Ol' head!) I hand dyed the mohair, and the soft cashmere wool I used on his arms and legs.
I love creating teddy bears.

I love your work. Such curious little bears that feel both vintage and modern.
