Hi I am new here but would love to hear from any one who has any Charlie bears. I have 103 bears and love all of them
Hi Emma,
I have quite a few Charlie Bears too, but nowhere near a 103!
Which one is your absolute favourite? I think mine would be Sig Hugalot (but I am a bit obsessed by big bears ).
Welcome, Emma! I have three Charlie bears, and I think they're great fun. Do you have any photos of your hug?

@peterbear....nothing wrong with a "big" bear- the bigger the bear, the better the hug!
(the fellow I cuddled next to last night for warmth was a scant 6 feet long) ;0)
Hi Emma,
Bit late, but, I also collect Charlie bears, I've probably got about 50 or so. Some mohairs, but mostly the large plush. I just can't seem to make a cute large cuddly bear ( I'm ok at creating 2 to 6 inch mini's) but anything larger just doesn't work for me.
I came across my first charlie bear about 5 years ago, a cute little panda, and I've luved them ever since. They're such a contrast to what I make. It's so cute sitting one of my 2 inch mini's on my largest panda's nose, she's nearly 3 foot tall,looks like a little bug sitting on her nose haha.
I've slowed down a bit of late, running out of space to display them. We have a beautiful teddy bear shop that sells them about an hour away. For a treat , my husband takes me there every 3 to 4 weeks just to see if any new ones appeal to me. We have morning tea there and I get to check out the bears. Makes for a lovely morning.
Anyway, enjoy collecting.
Best wishes
Rikki
