I have made a new smaller size pattern for my series of Old Loved Bears.
Dobby is an old clown or could be a Christmas bear as he is festive in his colouring.
I have made him from a felted mohair in a brown with a lighter backing that lends beautifully to the aged look.I have given him darns and used my own special ageing technique to give him the old played with loved look.His nose is embroidered sparsely for a well kissed look and I have given him antique boot button eyes with small underfelting.
Dobby wears a cotton play suit that also has been aged -old buttons and rusty bells.
He is cotterpin jointed and weighted with a heavy filling.
I have sat him next to my old loved doll in the last picture
