I am very excited to be able to say that I am now on the Made By Hands of Britain website. It will be a great place to sell my teddy bears and bespoke, made to order teddy bears too.
I was honoured (and surprised) when Gillian approached me and asked me to be a part of Made By Hands of Britain. It was great to know somebody had noticed and like my teddy bears. It has definitely given me a boost in confidence.

This contemporary teddy bear is fully jointed with cotter pin joints, and has English glass eyes. I used a hand loom to weave his fabric which is 100% silk, the warp hand-dyed to give him the gradated colour. Inside he is polyfibre stuffing, and steel balls to ensure a good weight.

This is Clemence. A cute, little teddy bear at 6.5″. He has been hand woven on an 8 shaft hand loom using 100% silk yarn. The yarn was hand dyed to give him a graduated colour.

Frederick, an adorable teddy bear. Hand woven using 100% silk yarn, this gives him a soft luxurious feel. The glass eyes and cotter pin joints keep a traditional element, while the bright hand dyed yarn make him stand out among other teddy bears.
