Teddies are back in the Gallery

[tgiro]

A couple of years ago, I had some of my JGR teddies in one of the local art galleries. I was asked to bring them back for this season. I had to make five of them since I had sold a lot of them through craft shows.

It was interesting because I only sold two or three of them through the gallery the last time, but I got orders for different character bears. And it is happening again - no sales through the gallery, but I've received two phone calls about making different characters.

The teddies are easy, fun projects, that help me get back into cutting and shaping.

They look great and not surprised they generate orders for other style bears not shown. Good luck. I need to give one a try. Something small to get my Intarsia rhythm going again.

Like this one? Not in the gallery - a one-off custom job.

Yes that's a beauty!

Great work there. Maybe given me an idea for my next years theme.

I love them all.  I would definitely take them all home with me.  Fabulous work.  Isn't it funny how customers always want what you don't have, I think it must be a customers unwritten rule.
