Hello, and thanks for stopping by! I'm Anita, and I have a thing for teddy bears! I love collecting and creating. Being a full time working mom to two kids under three is not for the faint of heart, though, so I typically won't create until there is a school holiday, or in the summer!
I've been crafting my bears using my own patterns for almost eleven years now, and have been featured in Bears and Buds as well as on HGTV's That's Clever! Bear making, for me, is a passion. In my spare time, I'm a third grade teacher. :)
Inspiration comes in many forms, but most recently is found in my two beautiful children... their captivating expressions are those I hope to recreate in my bears.
I hope you enjoy looking at my bear hugs as much as I adore making them!
Love and Bear Hugs!
