calanddelweb.jpgHere are two bears that I just finished this past weekend.  Both are made from discontinued fabric.  The larger bear, Caledonia, measures 15 inches.  She's made from a 5/8" sparse feathered mohair that is brown with a yellow back.  I used this mohair on her arms, upper torso, head and ears.  Her lower torso and legs are made from a pastel stripe home decor fabric giving them a "Raggedy Ann" type appearance.  Her dress is made from a salmon colored wool felt and is embellished with lollipop flowers made from embroidery floss and vintage buttons.  She has a vintage button brooch on her Peter Pan collar which has also been embellished with embroidery floss.  Her undergarments are made from white wool felt and have been detailed with embroidery floss as well as her shoes which were also handmade by me out of the same salmon colored wool felt with leather soles.

Her friend, Delilah, is a petite 8 inches and is made from a 3/8" sparse cream mohair.  She has been coffee dyed and distressed.  She wears a vintage piece of lace as her collar.

Yes, please, ask Caledonia if she'll lift her dress a bit so we can see those legs. Both of them are so cute.

Well Caledonia is quite prim and proper so it took a bit for me to get her to lift her skirt!!!  But here are her "striped stockings" and a peak at her bloomers!!!

Oh, her legs and bloomers are so cute. Such a cute idea. I think she's just wonderful and so is Delilah. Thanks for talking her into showing her legs.
