Clowns and Bears

I've tried lots of different projects over the years. At one stage in the early 1990's I used to make clowns which sat on a ring and hung from the ceiling. I sold the clowns at few markets and used to get a lot of orders for particular colors.

Sometimes when I had a stall at the Upwey market, Megan, Jacinta and mum would come and help.

A few years later I also started making teddy bears from material. I used to give the bears away and also sold a lot to people who placed orders. The bears were very popular with the young girls and sometimes I would have four or five little girls come stay overnight and spend the day making bears.


I still have the pattern and a bear cut out for myself so maybe one day I'll get around to making it.
