Anemone is another of my new designs with a large needle felted muzzle -I have been inspired by looking at my dogs droopy mouth and large sad eyes to create this bears unusual face.
Anemone has a porcelain nose and large English buzzard glass eyes with white under felting and leather eyelids.Her body is a wonderful curly dusky pink with a dark backing.I have needle sculpted her cashmere paws -she is cotter pin jointed and weighted with encased sand.
Anemone wears a felt hat that is decorated with anemone's .She is 12" tall not including her hat!

I am pleased to introduce you to my latest design -Fredrick is made from a golden curly German mohair with a needle felted muzzle.I really enjoy making this new style with the felted faces. Fredrick has large jowls (inspired by my dogs droopy mouth).He has a hand made porcelain nose and beautiful glass eyes with white under felt.I have also needle felted his paw pads.
I have had a lovely time making and hand embroidering his clothes which are felt and decorated with rusty bells and braiding.He looks like a little elf from the black forest and also could be one of Santa's little helpers.
Fredrick is cotter pin jointed and has pellets in his tummy for a nice feel.
Another that I am loathe to part with!!!!
