ROSEPETAL THE CLOWN

I am having so much fun making clowns! This is Rosepetal and she is another 6 inch clown bear, with excelsior and steel shot stuffing. She has made from cream and pale pink mohair, with german glass eyes and a waxed nose. She is a centre seam bear and has shading on her face, eyes, ears and paw pads. Rosepetal has been slightly aged, and has tiny holes in her wool felt paw pads, so her excelsior to show through. Her collar is made from a vintage swiss dot organza and her hat is molded felt.

Rosepetal is already on her way to her new home in Peterborough, Ontario, with a lovely lady - she picked her up this afternoon. Since most of my bears go to the U.S. or Europe, it's lovely to have one so close by. Well, it's almost supper time and I have to decide what's on the menu - thanks for peeking!
