I'm having a bit of a creative crisis at the moment!!!!
I absolutely love making my bears, but, although my website
lanesendbears.com receives a fair amount of hits per day, if the stats 
are to be believed, no one emails & I have only ever had a couple of 
bears adopted from the site.
Are my bears not what people want? do I have to change direction?
It took me some time to find a pattern that I was happy with, now maybe I'll
have to design another kind of bear.
Or is it that there are just too many of us bear artists out there!!!

Hadley is a bear that I made a couple of years ago. 
Made from a downloaded pattern for a competition, those of us who wished, made a bear from the pattern, with the idea being, the different types of bears made from the same pattern. Anyway Hadley did not get a place & was subsequently put away until the other day.
I was going to undo him but decided to change his eyes from boot button to glass & reposition them.

The other bear is Dusty, a little 6" bear made from mohair.

Been playing around with my website this morning, redone a new gallery 
& put 2 more bears in the special offer section. Do have a browse, you 
never know there maybe one there, somewhere, waiting for your special hug.
Have a good Sunday, weather here is really nice!!! Hope it last's the day.
