For anyone interested, I have started a blog, just for Stitch.
It will be a great way to inform people of his health issues and care - also his progress, People are always asking after him and I'd rather not clog up my bear blog with his news.
He has his own space here -
http://stitchsjourney.blogspot.com/
if you would like to learn more about him, please follow him - but don't feel like you have to - I don't think he's be offended as he's pretty easy going.
Best wishes, Julia xxx

A new Bear is Revealed
I say Revealed, Because this sweet little guy has been with me for a while,
I made him back in October, when things were a little more settled than they are right now.
He's my take on a more 'traditional' style of bear, with nice short sparse mohair.
I like his ears, and his sweet expression.
I haven't really formally named him. although he reminds me a lot of Sooty - don't you think?
I'll leave it to his new Mum.
Yes, this guy is spoken for and will be going to live up in Scotland, I hope he likes snow!
He's going to live with the lovely friend who made my logo for me as a thank you.
Hope you enjoyed meeting him!

Just a quickie...
Just a note really, to say I finished my Christmas Ornament bear tonight. He's super sweet and I'd love to keep him! I might post a sneak peek at him soon; But don't want to reveal him all, as it would spoil the suprise for the recipent if she saw it!
I am honoured to be sending a bear to this person as it is someone whose work I greatly admire, and hope they aren't too disappointed by my less than perfect creation!
Once I have confirmation that bear has arrived, I will post 'proper' pictures.
Suffice it to say, I will never, ever make a bear of this size or that pattern ever again. Never.
Mini bears were not designed to be double neck jointed, but somehow I pulled it off. It was difficult enough that I won't try that one again!
He's made of the most lovely Tyber synthetic though - and the good news is, I just managed to pick up some more on eBay tonight. I like to sit and just stroke it.... tehehehe.
It's nice to have finally finished a bear of my own design again.
