Custom Order #17

for Debra


Twin custom mink teddies
(pattern #1)


Features of Custom Teddy (pattern #1):

Bears stands 11 inches tall (sits 8 inches)
black glass eyes
embroidered, waxed, and sealed nose
6 joints including a double jointed neck
hand-stitched vintage minks from family's mink stole
scissor sculpted face
gently hand-painted details
wire armature in arms and legs
paw pads from the stole's lining
stuffing: polyfil and plastic pellets


These darling faces are why I fall in love with each and every teddy that I make.
As long as I love my teddies myself I will continue to make them, 
this is my 31st year as a Teddy Bear Artist ... 
and still counting!

Thank you to all everyone on my Waiting List for being so patient. 
I am not making my teddies as fast as I used to
but at least I am still making them.
















included is a hand-stitched "quilt" for the teddies to sit on,
made from the lining of the mink stole.
