A little girl

Hello!
For those of you that know me pretty well, you know that I never, ever make girl bears.  It has nothing to do with me not wanting to make females, it just happens that whenever I try to make a girl bear it looks more like a boy in a dress.  I've played with different designs and made several attempts over the years, but I think I've finally done it.  Today, I am introducing to you all my first little girl bear!  Please meet Anna.  Anna is a 14.5" bear made out of an ivory mohair with a dusty pink backing.  She has black glass eyes with ultrasuede eyelids and eyelashes.  Her nose is hand-stitched using brown perle cotton.  She has a light pink ultrasuede used on her foot pads.  Anna is fully jointed and stuffed with a mixture of polyester fiber and steel shot for weight.  She was made using a bent arm and bent leg design which allows her to cross her legs or to sit on an edge (such as a shelf).  Her little white dress has a pink ribbon and bow with a vintage green button in the front.  She is currently available for $160.  I will be bringing her along with all of my new creations (many of which I'm hiding until the show) to TBAI on August 16th - 18th.  For more on the show visit www.tbai.org.

 

Please let me know what you think of Anna in the comment section!

Hugs,
