Thank you! And BIP's! (Bears in Progress)

I owe big Thank You's!! First, a big thank you to all those who came to my second Flourishes event. Gals (and their hubby's!) came from all over.....near and far! Some traveled three hours to get here! I am humbled and grateful for each and every one of you. My only wish would have been that the wind wasn't blowing so cold and fierce for those who came in the early morning hours. Bless your hearts!!

A second big thank you for all the well wishes!! I'm fine. I'm resting.....and, if I didn't have bears to work on, I'd be bored out of my mind!! This resting thing is not my cup of tea. It never has been. That's exactly why I'm having to do it!! ha!


So, here I am with BIP's. 15 of them!! I'm getting antsy to sew up my new little three piece bear. If it turns out well, these little bears will be tucked in stockings for the holidays. A sweet, fairly inexpensive little bear treat! These little bears will have the same look as the one's pictured (they both sold at Flourishes this past weekend!) only they won't be jointed. Cross your fingers that the first prototype is the only prototype!!


Warmest bear hugs, Aleta

wish I could have come to flourishes, too bad its too far away.....

hope that you aren't too bored with all the resting but with 15 bears to sew up i'm sure you will be well occupied.

Your little bears are adorable, and your beautiful pictures of the second show (for these are shows to me) are all so inviting. Would that I could be so tidily organized as you!

Get that required rest and keep us thrilled with your magic.
