I have added some new bears and a bunny to my Etsy shop if you would like to check them out.
Pete is a peach bear made of German mohair and has hand-painted glass eyes. He is hand dyed. He is 8 1/2″ tall. You can see his Etsy page here.
Petra is a dark turquoise bear made of German mohair and also has hand-painted glass eyes. She is hand dyed and is 7 1/2″tall. You can see her Etsy page here. (Petra has been sold.)
Maxie is a pale beige bunny made of German mohair. He is hand shaded and is holding a vintage millinery carrot. He is wearing a lace scarf. He is 8″ tall including his ears. You can see his Etsy page here.
The last two bears I showed before, and have now placed them in my Etsy shop.
Isabel is an orange bear made of German mohair. She is hand dyed. She is wearing a French trim headband and a handmade vintage lace collar with a vintage pearl button. She is 7 3/4″ tall. You can see her Etsy page here.
Ruthie Ann is a miniature red and dull purple panda made of German mohair. She is hand dyed. She is wearing a vintage lace skirt, a necklace of vintage glass beads, and a cotton floss bow on her head. She is 2 1/2″ tall. You can see her Etsy page here. (Ruthie Ann has been sold.)

Hi Ellen! Awww, these guys are cute, I hope the economy allows folks to think about givin’ ‘em a new home soon! Ruthie Ann looks totally ‘in place’ on the lap of the larger doll.
Clearly, I need to stop looking at people’s blogs *grin*; with each blog, I want to go off and do something! Visiting here makes me want to get the sewing machine fixed and complete the construction of the dinosaurs-by-the-pattern stuffed toys, begun in the late 70’s. Just to do them and see what the paint jobs my sister and I gave them look like on a 3D critter. They aren’t mohair, though, just a linen cloth. And highly improbable painted body coloration *smile*!
Enjoyed seeing the little folk here and your Etsy pages gave me food for thought, thanks!
Cheers,
pete
