I can't think of anything to say. Not a sausage.
We have head colds, and even if I could think of anything to say- it would probably be even more rubbish--ier (?) than the stuff that normally falls out of my mouth anyway. So I'll just show you Beetle.
He's made from a lovely tufted mohair that I trimmed back too much around his eyes, and then had to insert contrasting mohair circles to hide his eye area baldness. Poor Beetle, he's ended up looking like I feel.
Fuzzy and spaced out.
He is wonderful, and his eyes are fantastic, the contrast look great :)
Head colds = duhness, I hope you feel better soon!

He`s adorable! I just want to hug him, BECAUSE of the spaced out look. Hope you`re feeling better soon - colds suck.

A lovely bear and the rings around his eyes give him a unique look, i think you should do a whole range of animals like this:0

Hope u all feel better soon. He is so cute, I want one!
Posted by: Sally-Ann | November 11, 2006 at 10:37 PM
He is endearing, I love him! Sometimes it's not too bad to make a mistake - that way you managed to make him even cuter than he would have been otherwise... Excellent "rescue operation"!
Posted by: Christine | November 12, 2006 at 09:02 AM
He's adorable. If I could look like him when I feel fuzzy and spaced out I wouldn't mind it at all! ;)

Oh beetle is such a dear! "Imperfect things are so much closer to perfection I feel. If one wanted a cookie-cutter design they could find it anywhere... where as there's only one beetle in this whole wide world... and he's fabulous!
Feel well soon!

Sending you loads of wishes to get well soon, Lyn!
Beetle looks adorably fuzzy!
((hugs))

You know what I love? I love the way the dolls of any given doll-maker all have similar expressions, as though they were all siblings. (Of course they are siblings of a sort. So this makes sense.)
Very nice bear and I hope you all feel better soon.

Mistakes have been some of my most inspiring moments! Cute teddy. x

I agree with all the comments that I read above — Beetle is wonderful! Beetle is unique, and obviously "himself". He looks incredulous if you see him in one way, while, yes, fuzzy and spaced out in another. My biggest agreement? Creativity often comes from our so-called mistakes. Gets the brain juices flowing and lets the Muses in! I found your site via Artella's Link-Latte, and am so glad I did! I have more exploring to do on your site, but so far, even your title page is wonderful!
