The bear brought a tear to my eyes~
I have ALWAYS wanted a tilted nose primitive bear.
I have had the hardest time finding one, with the nose tilted just quite so, and the eyes spaced just right.
I have had the hardest time finding one, with the nose tilted just quite so, and the eyes spaced just right.
And there he was, amungst many beautiful things, sent to me by Mary, at Prairie Homeplace,
as Mary was my swap partner in Tammy's envelope swap~
I have named him Leon.
Now up here in Quebec, there are no bears such as this. So to receive him in the mail was so special.
A stunning folk art pear pin keep, (I have always wanted a pear pinkeep), a beautiful stichery, a wax bar-so thoughtfully wrapped, a fun seed label, and bowl fillers, and a hope block~
As I opened the envelope, everything smelled like cinnamon and cloves~
Thank You so much Mary, you made my day~ Hugs
Thank You Tammy, for hosting this swap, I always enjoy participating!

Mary's work is just beautiful! You have one good looking teddy :) All the other goodies look Prim Perfect~!
Aw, how very sweet! What a wonderful swap. It's like Mary knows you so very well! I have a heart for teddy bears also, but especially the homemade prim ones. Leon is very precious indeed~
You couldn't have been paired with a more amazing partner - I LOVE Mary's hand mades..... And that bear - oh, that darling bear!! Makes me want to squeeze him tight! She did an incredible job with him....Love all the other goodies too - the stitchery is so sweet! (And I LOVE hollyhocks....so I always have seeds about somewhere!) ;o) Enjoy your treasures.....I saw what Mary received from you on her blog, and am working my way through some catch-up, as I have to see the story on that amazing bonnet you made! How did I miss that??? (Glad Mary got it though, as it works perfectly with her satchel....) Smiles & Bear Hugs ~ Robin
