Also, I finally have my first bear of the year finished. He is called Gerald and he was commissioned from an old work friend. I hope you all like him.

Now, unfortunately I have to take a few weeks off making bears because we recently ordered a new suite for the living room, so we are re-decorating, and it looks to be a bigger job that we first thought since the plaster is coming off with the wallpaper.
Oh well, it will look lovely when it's finally finished.
I will post pics when we get everything finished. Then it's back to making bears and getting everything covered in fluff again.
