A little bear has been found in the button tin....
she'll be on the website soon!......
do take a look at 'new bears' page......





I design and make little bears, some traditional and some anime bears based on the quirky Japanese style. I have been making bears for about 13 years.
Each design is 'one-of-a-kind' (OOAK) made with quality materials - I like to use mohair and alpaca, some mini bear fabrics such as cashmere and vintage fabrics for the aged-look in some of my designs. The bears have glass eyes and embroidered noses and faces. I also collect vintage buttons, these I use for noses on the little animes!
The bears range from 4cm/1.5" to 23cm/9" Each bear is cotter pin jointed and the tiny animes are cotter pin head jointed and 4-way thread jointed.
Occasionally I break away from making the bears as I like to make other sewn creations, from the many fabrics I've collected and I have also become addicted to needlefelting so sometimes a little new little critter appears on the scene!
As I use remnants and small pieces of collected fabrics and trimmings I only make one-of-a-kind designs and the little bears appear with their own quirky characteristics!
My little bears are now available at www.sillybears.co.uk Summer Collection now on their website
