Two big shows for artist bears

I am busy sewing at the moment as I have 2 big shows that are very close together.The first is Hugglets at Kensington on Sunday 26th February from 10.30 to 4.00pm where I will be down in the basement on stand 100.There are 100's of bears to choose from and this is the biggest show for bears in the uk.
The second show is the Teddies Worldwide online show and is being held on March 23rd to March 25th.There are 100 artists taking part in this show and all artists must have a minimum of 5 bears up for sale that have never been seen any where else before so what better excuse to come along and treat yourself!!!

British Bear Artist Awards... a hat trick!

I am so pleased to announce that I won three awards in the British Bear Artist Awards 2011.

Rufus my 16 inch bear won 3rd prize in category 4 for medium sized classic bears.

Norma my 5 inch elephant won 3rd prize in category 9 for furry friends

and finally Barnaby won 2nd prize in category 1 for undressed miniatures.

Sadly due to unforseen circumstances the British Bear Fair did not go ahead so I will receive my awards by post but the show is due to be scheduled at a later date!

I am so pleased to announce that I have 3 bears that are finalists in the British Bear Artist Awards this year.The finals are to be held at the British Bear Fair at Sandown Racecourse,Esher,Surrey on Saturday November 12th 2011.I will be having a stand this year so please stop by and say hello.

I am attending the Hugglets show in Kensington on the 27th February 2011 and will be on stand 100 in the basement .I am taking a variety of bears including two 16 inch traditional bears called Farley and Truflle.Truffle is made with a luxury schulte tipped mohair and Farley is also made with a beautiful schulte mohair.Hugglets is a fantastic show and is not to be missed !!!

I had a lovely day at Brighton on Sunday December 12th when I attended the British Bear Artist Awards.I had a stand at the show and some of my bears found lovely new homes and I am pleased to announce that my miniature bear Benjamin got a third place in Category One for Miniatures.He is pictured here with his award(he is the brown bear with the white inset face).

I am already busy getting ready for my next two shows that are quite close together.The first show is Hugglets at Kensington London on Sunday February 27th 2011 and the second is the Blooming Bear online show which will be held on March 12th and 13th.Both shows have lots of gorgeous bears.

I highly recommend a visit to Hugglets as you won't be disappointed with such a large range of bears of all shapes and sizes. http://www.hugglets.co.uk/
