Okay..well, here is Edward. Adopted and named by my 8 year old daughter. I was planning on selling him until I saw her craddling and rocking him in her arms with a big warm mommy-loving smile on her face. <sigh> I lose more bears this way...but she is hard to say no to.

Edward is made from German mohair with a mop of troll-like really long kid mohair with tips. You should see allthe crazy doos my daughter gives him bear_laugh
I hand knitted him his overalls from my own design.

I know he is goofy...but he is loved....... bear_wub and that's what really counts.

Also pictured with Edward is Gerard. I may be putting him up for adoption either on my website or ebay...not sure yet.

Oh, Judi, I don't think he is goofy at all! He is so sweet and adorable. I love his hair! I'm sure you'll be grateful for giving this little boy to your daughter. She'll give him the best kind of love all teddies deserve.

What a neat little bear, I can see why your daughter fell in love with him! You know, it's a good thing my mother wasn't doing artist bears when I was a little girl. I would have claimed all the best ones and she knows it.

Judi...your daughter has great taste....and Edward is FAR from goofy! I think it's so lovely that you gave the bear to her...moments like that are worth more than money! I'm sure she will treasure him forever and at least you know he will be well looked after!
I love the shaping you get with your muzzles...they're very unusual! bear_flower

Aww ladies how nice of you to say such sweet comments. When I was working on Edward, I thought he looked a bit monkey-like so I added the mohair doo on his head. I laugh when I look at him.

YAY Daphne! I am so glad you like them. :hug: :hug:

I really had no idea what sort of comments I would get with this guy. bear_innocent

I agree with those who say moments like this are worth more thanthe money. My Rachel takes him to bed every night. bear_wub ..along with five others of mine. bear_original

Maybe I am the goofy one....I named Gerard after the actor Gerard Butler because I made this bear while wacthing Phantom of the Opera (for the ump-teen time). bear_whistle

What a fun world we live in with all of our teddy bears. bear_wub
