TOBY's for Billy and Lilly!

Billy

What a wonderful surprise to learn of two TOBY awards this year for my panda Billy and my bunny Lilly! Each of these are about 4 inches tall. Billy lives with Pat and Lilly lives with another Donna. Can't wait to tell them! Many thanks to Teddy Bear and Friends magazine and those who selected my bear and bunny for the awards!!

Forward to Spring!


Two fur orders arrived today. I had Spring hues in mind when I placed the orders. Both are from Etsy shops - the lavenders from the Ukraine and the other pastels from Italy. All of these pieces are viscose fur - so lovely and soft!
We are still escaping extreme winter weather here in southern Virginia and green rye grass planted for the season as well as wildlife are in abundance.
This sweet woodpecker looks for lunch in a holly tree just outside a dinning room 
window.
When I came in from photographing the new fur a beam of light from a treasured Christmas gift caught my eye. This stunning crystal bell sits in a cabinet right next to another window and sunlight shines through beautiful crystal casting rainbows to enjoy!

Can't wait to see the little bears and bunnies I'll find in all that beautiful fur!

A little peek!


The new little chap has passed Rocky's inspection!


When weather permits (when it warms up!) I'll take some photos outside so that I can present him to the world in the Etsy shop!! This wonderful Tissavel fabric which he's made from is so soft!
