Boogaloo Bears May 16, 2011

Hi All

I would like to introduce big 'Bartholomew' bear

I am making bears for the November National Motorcycle museum show at Birmingham, so have not posted any new creations on eBay for a while.

Generally I make small bears, however had some gorgeous, long champayne swirl mohair which cried out to be transformed to a large, cuddly bear, so I have just finished 16.5" Bartholomew.

He is very, very heavy and has a really cute growler. I like to collect large bears (have only got a couple though!) and thoroughly enjoyed making this huge bruin.

Sorry the photograph isn't great, I took the photo from my phone and the lighting isn't fantastic! He has one of my little ones keeping him company currently, as you can see from the picture.

I hope you like him and hope that he finds a nice new home in November   :pray:

Hugs

Hi Lisa, congratulations for being so organised for a fair in November! 

Bartholomew looks a really cuddly soft sort of guy.   Bet you had fun stuffing him    the biggens seem to take forever to stuff!

I think he is fab and I know of one male collector on TT who would probably love him in his hug too 

Good luck with your shows this year

I love big guys, Lisa (and by "big guys" I mean big teddy bears  ) and Bartholomew looks adorable, ready for a big big hug! 

Hugs,  :hug:

Perhaps unsurprisingly, I'm going to agree with Peter and say I love Big Bears and this Big Fella is fab. I absolutely love him. What a creation.

Oooh, he really is gorgeous. Lucky person who gets to add him to their hug!  Good luck with the show - any more big bears on the way?

Hi Margaret

I think I may venture into the 'big bear' making again as it was so lovely to work with the beautiful long pile mohair.

Stuffing was a bit of an ordeal though!! 

Hugs
