Susan

Introducing Susan!

Susan is a sweet little lady who has been lovingly handcrafted using a golden mohair. The paw pads, ears and hands are made from a beautiful multicoloured (but mostly purple) British tweed. She is filled with polyester fibre fill and is slightly weighted.

Susan wears a hand knitted purple scarf around her neck fastened with a gold & black tone metal button. This bear has a hand embroidered nose and glass eyes with a little shading. Susan is 5 way jointed with cotter pins and measures approximately 5”/13cm seated and 7”/18cm standing. (This bear is sometimes able to stand unaided, but would appreciate a little help.) Susan will arrive with tags attached and a certificate of authenticity.

My bears are all lovingly handcrafted, using my own patterns, in my little studio in the Forest of Dean. Each bear is individually made, so no two will be the same. They all have their own unique character and I like to dress them in outfits or accessories to suit them. I have a love for interesting textiles and traditional embellishment techniques, so my designs will usually feature recycled sari fabric, tweed, vintage textiles, embroidery, beading or exciting prints.
