Last year I designed bear Alice especially for Teddy Bears of Witney, and for the new catalogue 2010/2011 I have made this character.

Characters are always inspiring me and Pinocchio is one of them. Not an easy job to create him, as I wanted him to have the same construction as the original wooden one.

Old lace ribbons were sewn together and cut in the pattern of the fancy dress. Georgina is a romantic girl and she has a nostalgy for the past.

As usual Easter time is pre-eminently the moment for Bunnies to show off, and Creamy isn't acting differently.

Weather has been extremely warm for the time of the year in the Netherlands. The sunny sandy beaches, which are close by, inspired me to make this little friend.

Every time I caught sight of these old greeting cards, there was this dualism whether to throw them away or to keep them for...yeah... for what reason?
