Hi everybody,
I would like to introduce you to Julius - he will be going to Stratford in a couple of weeks' time for the Teddy Bear Artist Event 2008. If the weather is anything like the way it is this weekend (cold, wet), he will be jolly glad of his hat!! 
I have put more details and pictures in my Etsy shop, along with a few pieces of my hand-cast jewellery and some handmade journals. What doesn't sell there will also be going to Stratford. Please take a look here: www.EnglishEccentric.etsy.com
Hugs,
Chris
PS My special shop signing at Abracadabra is two weeks after Stratford, so I am stitching away like a madwoman!!!
Wow 
He is truly amazing 
Hugs :hug:

Cincinnati, OhioJulious is awesome, Christine! I love these hats you do. They really suit this style of bear. Do you knit them yourself? Great job. Great face!
I love Julius ...can't wait to see him at the show Chris 
Lynne :hug:
He is so striking, Christine! Love his soulful eyes and expression--and the hat is just the right topper! 
Thank you so much, guys!
My mom-in-law knits the hats for me - she adores knitting and always has little scraps of wool lying around that aren't big enough to make into anything... until now! I will bring some hats to Stratford, as I have lots of spares.
Hugs,

wow!!! I love him!! and your etsy shop looks great - I just love those necklaces with the pewter bear heads - they are so original. See you in less than two weeks!!
Thank you, everybody!!! I have to confess that I am getting nervous about Stratford - it seems ages since I did a show (oh, wait, was it only February??). Anyway, this one is going to be VERY special, so I am pulling out all the stops and making an extra special effort to have lots of bears for the collectors to choose from. Right now, I have about ten bears - for those of you who don't know me, that is a huge achievement!!! I might even manage a few more before the great day arrives!!
Hugs,
Chrisx
Wow, another beautiful addition to your bears! Good luck on Sunday at Stratford, and I look forward to meeting you - it's going to be a brilliant day!
Hugs
Marilyn
