Autumn is now here with us, although here in the UK the weather is unusually warm.
The leaves are falling & making a lovely carpet of oranges & golds.
With Autumn in mind & Halloween around the corner, I am introducing new bear Pickety Witchety. She is 4.5", made from sassy fabric, with sparkly green eyes & a sparkly nose.
She is fully cotterpin jointed & her pads are made from vintage black velvet. Her rather fetching skirt is made from orange chiffon, with a black ribboned bow around her waist. Her little hat is made from felt topped with a rusty bell.

Went to Findon Sheep Fair on Saturday. I have been doing this fair for the last 12 years & each year it seem's to get bigger & better. I had my best year ever with 5 bears being adopted, 3 of which are pictured below.
A great deal of painted stuff was sold also. So now I'm on the hunt for some junk to paint!!!

I made these two bears a few weeks ago for a friends wedding. I wasn't able to make it to the evening reception because of a poorly dog!!! but I did see her yesterday so was able to give them to her. I can now show them to everyone!!!
