Kim, or should I call you super mum  bear_grin  wow misses, three littleones, a bear a week to sell AND these gorgeous bears for the fair .................. take a deep breath and give yourself a well deserved pat on the back  :clap:

I have been drooling over your preview on your website and, as always, I love all the bears you have made, but If I'm allowed a favourite it would have to be Boffet, a real heartmelter bear_wub

I wish I could go to Stratford this year, but hubbys working and I would only come away depressed cos I couldn't afford one  bear_cry  But I will be waiting eagerly for all the gossip and piccies after the show!

Oh these bears are beautiful.  I am not used to seeing you work in short fur.  I must say I just love Cuddles, perfect name for him.  I also love the bent leg design you have done.  They are sure to find good homes.  Hopefully you will find more time to work.  I only have one child, and I just could not do it when she was little.  The fact that you are still finding any time is truly amazing.
