Introducing Honey

I'm thrilled to introduce Honey. She will be travelling to Brisbane with me tomorrow and can be admired in the "fur" at the Brisbane Teddy Bear Fair on 18th September. Hope to see many of you there.

Brisbane Teddy Bear Fair

I've just finished the sewing the last bear for the Brisbane Teddy Bear Fair held at the Holiday Inn, Roma Street, Brisbane QLD / Australia on 18th September 2011 from 10am to 4pm.
My bears and I can't wait to board the plan next Saturday for Brisbane and hopefully will be able to catch-up with many of you.
There is still time to book for my workshop YumCha on 19th September at Kympatti Bears, Broadbeach Waters QLD. You'll find more details at http://www.durrerbears.com/catalog.php?item=149&ret=index.php. YumCha is a gorgeous bear to make wonderful techniques to be learned. I would love to have you in my class.

Introducing Sandi

I would like to introduce Sandi, my latest design. She is an OOAK in a series and so cute with her wobbly head. She fits comfortably into your palm and is a great addition to any bearhug. Sandi is now on my website for adoption.

Only 3 more weeks and I will be in Brisbane at the Teddy Bear Fair held at the Holiday Inn on 18th September. I'm also looking forward to teaching YumCha in my workshop on 19th September at Kympatti Bears Studio, Broadbeach Waters.

There are still some places for the workshop and I would love to have you there.

Introducing Lucy the raccoon

Due to popular demand I have created another raccoon. Even though these critters are an open edition, every one of them has slightly different markings. They measure 11cm and their tail is bendable to achieve different looks. More details are on my website. These raccoons adopt quickly so if Lucy is tugging on your heart strings, don't leave it too long.....

Introducing YumCha

I am proud to introduce YumCha to you! He is my workshop bear for 19th September at Kympatti Bears, Broadbeach Waters QLD. I had so much fun making this gorgeous panda, playing with new eyelids and a new technique to embroider noses showing nostrils.
You'll find more details on my website.

Slowly but surely......

Hello everyone,

I do apologize for not having written so long!!!

My bears and I had a wonderful time at the Gold Coast International Teddy Bear Fair and I enjoyed teaching my workshop at Kympatti Bear Studio. It was lovely to catch up with so many traders, bear makers and collectors!

On my way home, I got delayed because of the vulcanic ash blowing in from Chile. I was put-up in a great hotel all paid for by the airline and got home a day late.

Unfortunately, 3 days later I was in bed with the flu!!! And there I stayed for 3 1/2 weeks!!! I am slowly getting my life back trying to catch up with everything and getting back to normal.

I am in the process of making the workshop bear for 19th September at Kympatti Bear Studio. It is a beautiful panda and I can't wait to have him finished so I can show him to you all. Just bear with me for a few more days.....

I will be in touch soon!

Beary hugs,
Silvia

Not long now

Only a few more sleeps and my bears and I will be heading for the Gold Coast. It promises to be a great show and there are still some places available for my workshops on 13th and 14th June at Kympatti Studio. Icedor and Mungo are great bears to make and include wonderful techniques to be learned. More details are available on my website.
