This is Florence, a bear I made for my sister for her birthday.  My sis is a DON at a facility here in Iowa and I luckily found these vintage doll clothes on ebay a while back, so..............a nurse bear she's getting !  Someone handmade the cap and cape.  I think the apron was just added to the lot to round it off, but it's cute.  Not the best pics in the world....just wanted to take some quick before giving Florence to her tonight.  I didn't even groom Nurse Florence very well first   :redface: ............

A unique and fantastic bear, Tracy . . . your sister will love her!!

Tracy Mar 11, 2006

  Thanks gals!  My sister did love her....of course my four year old ruined the surprise before she could open her gift and told her to "look at your bear" !  She was laughing her butt off about that, so I had to tell her I was taking it back and she could see it on ebay.      She wouldn't let me take her back of course .......she's planning on keeping her on her desk at work. 

Penny--Send me a plane ticket and I'll come live with you and do all your noses!!!!!!     Or I could stow away in one of my boys' suitcases.    They're flying to London with their dad (my ex) over Easter vacation to visit his parents.  I'm excited for them-----we went once several years ago and it was so much fun!

That is great that she will have her sitting on her desk at work.

Tracy, WHat a lovey bear and what an even luckier sister!  Hey, I'm a nurse...do I get one too?

I am sure she'll be thrilled to bits over this bear.  I'm with Penny...you do fabulous noses.  They're perfect!

Hey, I'm a nurse...do I get one too?

You bet Judi!  Just as soon as I find another outfit like this....HEE HEE    Actually, I had thought to make a pattern from it to make another, but decided that Laurie's bear wouldn't be as special if I reproduced anything.  Oh well..............

One of my great-great aunts served with the real nurse Florence during the war.

That is a really neat bit of history.........COOL!!!

Thanks for all the wonderful compliments on Florence ( and my noses  ).  It does my heart good to read them!!
