A little news

It has been a long time, but I have been very busy. My 89 years old mother, who lives 400 kilometers away, has moved from a big house where she had lived for 50 years to a 3 room flat. It has been very hard for her. She loves the flat near her friends, but the mental moving is difficult when you have reached that age. Jorn and I have helped her moving for the past 2 weeks and are going home tomorrow. Hopefully, when we are gone she can find herself in the new sorroundings.


I look forward to coming home and make some new bears. The little group above has been visiting a photographer. The new ones can soon be seen on my web-site.
Bella has been staying with my son and daughter in law and their 3 children for the last fortnight. My grandson has been sleeping on the floor with her as she is not allowed in the beds. I guess that it will be hard for her to come home to mom and dad where no one is sleeping on the floor with her :-)

Lost in the flowers!

Little Terry couldn't find his way in the flowers. Luckily he was rescued :-)

I hope everyone is enjoying the summer. We have just spent 8 days on the island Bornholm in the Baltic Sea. It is a beautiful, Danish island where the nature is very much different from the rest of Denmark. Now we are enjoying the summer in our garden. We had Bella with us to Bornholm which was very nice.

Little blue "Oscar"

Here is "Oscar" enjoying the spring sitting on a garden bench.



Oscar is 9 cm tall and made from blue Sassy fabric. He has a little "silver" butterfly.
Oscar and 3 other little bears are for sale on my web-site just now.

"Lara" and a little about Bella

Little Lara is my newest creation. She is 9 cm tall standing, and she stands very well on her big

feet. Some times I just need colours - especially now when I have totally forgotten what spring is like. It is cold, cold .....

My Ridgeback, Bella, is now 6 months and you would think that she had read books about big dogs. She is acting just like it says in the books that from 6 to 18 months the dog is a lout. The day after her 6 months birthsday she found it necessary to try to eat one of the buttons on our sofa. As the button just wouldn't give in she tried with her front paws/nails with the result thet the fabric was torn. I am sure she thought: "Hurray, now I am 6 months, now the fun begins!!"

Well, we love her anyway. We have had dogs before and know that this is something we have to go through when we have a teen-age dog.

I have heard that spring will be here on Thursday - I look forward to it very much.

Little "Alfred" and his friend "Magnus"

I am looking out of my window and enjoying spring. Two pigeons are having a discussion in a tree nereby and Bella is telling me to skip playing with my computer and concentrate on her. So everything is as it should be.
My newest creations, Alfred and Magnus, have been photographed outside today - lovely, although it is somwhat windy and the little bears had problems staying in one spot.


Enjoy!

April post

Spring is here - and it is absolutely wonderful. There are so many things you want to do and there is not time for it all ;-) Well, as always it is a question of priority - but that is also a problem when you want to do everything right now. I am now on facebook which I can see also takes a lot of time.

My puppy, Bella, is 5 months old now and she is adorable. She really enjoys to be out in the sun being a Rhodesian Ridgeback. Inside she prefers to lie down in frot of the fireplace.

I have finished a little panda - please have a look. He is 9 cm tall and has checkered paw pads with a matching nose. A cute little guy.

Back from London (Hugglets)

Very late last night Jorn and I returned home from a lovely weekend in London. Up to the last hour we were not sure whether I could make the trip. I had been down with the flu all week but I had to go to Hugglets. A few years ago we were trapped in the airport because of the weather and couldn't attend the Hugglets Winter BearFest. We had a friend put a sign on our table that we were not able to make it. This could just not happen again. As it turned out my health was not the best, but all right. Or at least so I thought until I saw the photos my husband took of me and the stand!!

So - here is a photo of my stand without me. I enjoyed talking to collectors and other visitors and quite a few of my little bears didn't go back to Denmark.
