With all last week's procrastination and indecision, and things taking me way longer than usual I felt I sort of lost my crafting mojo.
I very happy to say that is has returned. At the moment I'm working on a special commission for this girl's baby to be, a larger Peabody. I was so chuffed to be asked. When I first started on him, the size was freaking me out a bit, he seemed HUGE compared to the normal Peabody, and also to my little guys. But now I think he's coming together alright. I hope she likes him. I'm really enjoying being back to (the other ) mohair bears. I feel pretty goddamn lucky, I love making bears in both mediums, so much so at times I have to say it out whether in company or not. Mum said to me the other night, " Yes I think we know that by now" but I still think it is a precious thing, after all this time and bears, the sense of joy is still there more so than less.
A big thanks to Kirsty for being the host, for more Creative Spaces pop over her place.

lol @ your Mum's comment, but I think it's great that you SO LOVE what you do, in all the ways you do it, it's awesome to have such a passion for your craft.
I think he's coming along great - what a cutie!
Even your body-less bears are too cute for words!
I love that Kitty's baby will have a special bear made with such love when he/she is born. I love your Mum's comment too. I think you are very lucky, some people spend their whole lives waiting to be inspired and work out what it is they love to do.
