adopted, before I could show him....


Hello everybody,

I was going to show you my newest little vintage bear.

A little pink 'n blue clown with a big smile on his white face.

But he was adopted in no time......

so here's a picture anyway,

hope you like him too.

a lion and a bumblebear



Nearly all my clothesline bears have found new homes,

except for little lion Rags, who's still hanging around.

And bumblebear Bumble B. still has a day to go on his ebay auction.

If you want more info,

just go to my site,

you find a link all the way down the bottom of this blog!

thanks,

Cat

Life's tough....when you're a teddy!


I worked on my Vintage Dreams bears today.

They all looked so fresh and clean.....

So I plucked and cut their fur,

gave them a tea bath,

and stained them with my special ink blend.......

I took a photo after I hung them out to dry.





They are a lot happier now,

sitting on my desk :O)

Happy Birthday Toto


Our doggy Toto turned 1 today.

My little puppy is growing up.

Happy Birthday Toto

pinwheels and flowers quilt


I just LOVE to quilt :O)

Well I'm not very good at it.

But after working small making bears,

I just have to make something BIG.

And so I make quilts that will keep us all warm,

.....for years to come.

Last week I finished a quilt made from "Dandelion Girl" charms.

And I just want to show it off!

So here it is:

TA-DAAAAA!

I'm so proud of it, it's hanging in my sandwich shop for all to see.

Hugs,

Cat

Walking with Toto


Everyday I take doggy Toto for a walk.

It's great fun, relaxing and I need the fresh air.

The area I live in is not exactly known for it's beauty.

But hey....just 2 ...ONLY 2 minutes away I can walk in a gorgeous forrest around "Erenstein"-castle. Unfortunately it's just too far to walk to. (Toto will have done his bizz before he get's there) But daughter Whitney rides her bike there to work, cause she works in the castle as a chef.

So everyday I take Toto and we go for our walk, it's OUR time, we walk, run, Toto swims and rolls around every bit of mud he can find. He greets the horses in the "Anstel"-valley. And he sees his doggy friends. Everyday I feel lucky to walk around such beauty and I'm able to get rid of all my dayly stress.

Ain't life grand!
