New Teddy Bear show at Woburn Abbey

The next few weeks will be a somewhat busy time as we stitch bears for a new Teddy Bear show.

The Woburn Abbey Teddy Bear Festival will be held on 11th June with is an interesting mixture of artists from various parts of the world as well as a wide selection of old bears including Alfonzo. This beautiful red Steiff bear now lives at the Teddy Bear Art Museum in Denmark.

I have a new little boy bear listed on E-Bay. Winston is wearing a bright yellow sweater with a kitty design on the front. Have not made a miniature knitted item of clothing for some time and this design using a cross stitch diagram, was a little fiddly but looks rather cute.

The potatoes are all in the ground, now to plant beans, tomatoes and whatever else I can fit into the pocket handkerchief vegetable garden. Wish the weather would make up its mind as the last few mornings have been rather cold with a light frost.

Until next time .............
