Meet Wilhelmina, for sale on ebay


Well here is my latest creation, I called her Wilhelmina ballerina after my middle daughter who is nearly three. I really love this little bear and its a bit heart breaking to sell her but..... can't afford any more materials til I do sadly. She is old gold, distressed Schulte mohair, which I then distressed even more with plenty of trimming and rubbing to matt her up a bit. I used fabric pens and tea bags for aging her and her little oufit, I'm reall pleased with her finished look. She has various little patches darned up with peach cotton perle and plenty of frayed looking bits. She has Matt black englich glass eyes and a waxed nose. I made her with slightly pointed ballerina toes too.

Well she's on ebay now so I hope she goes to a really good home, sometimes I worry that I am too sentimiental to make any money from this game!
