I've named him... Geoffrey Bear

I'm still fitting him out with a proper gentleman's clothing. It's all ready for some custom tailoring, a few more details and his silk ascot.

Here's how he looks right now. I had to lift his head a little to accommodate his formal starched color. Maybe I can find a better way to do it next time but he looks pretty stylish now for a Turn-of-the-Century bear.

The Gentleman Bear


This distinguished Gentleman Bear is made from two discarded suit coats and
he's dignified enough to grace anyone's parlor.
He is the second in a series of recycled bears that will be at my booth at

Arts & Crafts in the Hills 


which is coming soon to Canyon Lake, TX.

Green Lady Bear...



I've been obsessing about bears lately. Especially since I made the memory bear that I last posted. This one is made from some curtains that I had in my recycled fabric stash. These greens have a nice homespun texture that worked well with the white fabric reclaimed from an old cotton dress.

It's so much more satisfying to work with recycled materials. Nothing goes to waste!

I think I'll make a little headband for her with a little eyelet bow just to dress her up just a little bit more! I'll be showing her off at the Arts & Crafts in the Hills on Nov 6 & 7.
