Phoebe and Ruella

2013 has been quite a challenging year for me. First I fractured my wrist and 4 weeks later I also fractured my foot. This all happened February/March and I am still waiting for all my bones to heal properly and to get full movement back into my wrist.
Phoebe and Ruella are the last of my previous designs and they would love to be adopted (their prices have been discounted).

Soon, I will be starting to design a complete new range of bears/critters and they will be available at the Woodend Teddy Bear Show on 27th October.
I really hope that both, Phoebe and Ruella, will find a loving home soon, they can be adopted from bearpile or my website.

Finally......

Finally, I'm sitting at a computer where I can add a new post to my blog. I'm not sure what's wrong with my own but it does not let my write new posts anymore and unfortunately, I'm not that computer wise to fix the problem. At the moment, I'm sitting at my sister's computer in Switzerland and bingo, I can add a new blog. I visited Hugglets in London and had a wonderful time as well as taught a workshop in Switzerland. On 9th October I will be on my way to Perth again and looking forward to catching up with many of you at the Woodend Teddybear Show end of October.

Sydney Teddy Bear Show

Only 3 more sleeps and my bears and I will be flying to Sydney to exhibit at the Sydney Teddy Bear Show held at the Townhall on Sunday, 4th March. I'm looking forward to catching up with traders and collectors and hope that many of my bears/critters will find new homes. More details on my website.
See you soon. Silvia

Something different

I can't believe it, I'm actually on Youtube now. Would you like to know what I was up to last year (when I was not making bears)? Copy the following link into your browser to see the West Coast Swing performance of the Juan Rando Dance Academy Show in December 2011:

Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year

The year is coming to an end and I have been so busy training for the annual dance show I was participating in that the bears went into hibernation for a while. The show was a great success and I just loved to perform with the Argentine Tango and West Coast Swing Team at the Juan Rando Dance Academy Annual Show.
For 2012 I will take it a bit slower with my bears and as I will be going back home to Switzerland for 6 weeks I will also be attending less shows. Nonetheless, there will still be workshops at my studio every second Sunday and I will be exhibiting in Sydney and Woodend/Melbourne. All my bears will also be available from my website any time.
I would like to wish you all a wonderful Christmas and the best for 2012 and thank you so much for all the support this past year.
I hope, I will hear from you soon.
Beary hugs Silvia
