I began making Teddy bears in
1993. It all started when a good friend asked me to repair her son's 25 year
old Panda. Not wanting to harm the poor tattered teddy I suggested that I would
rather try making a new Panda.
Just a short time later I came across a
shoppe that was offering a class in making a fully jointed mohair teddy bear.
That class was magic, the secrets of a teddy bear whose arms, legs and head
moved had been revealed. I left the class with several yards of mohair fabric,
joints and eyes and lots of inspiration.
I live in British Columbia,
surrounded by Mother Nature's splendor. I have taken several workshops with
master bear artists to try and improve my own work. My bears have been featured
in Teddie's Own Journal, England's Teddy Bear Times, and the US magazine, Teddy
Bear Review.

Bears are found in homes in Canada, the United states, Germany and
England. I am always working to create the special Teddy Bear that will steal
someone's heart. |
