Teddy Bears Wednesday

I thought it was appropriate to share this blog TeddyBearsWednesday with you this Wednesday. I don't actually know the name of the lovely author but she posts her teddy collections and creations with the loveliest stories about them.

This is Gordon's friend Francis.

While Gordon is an ele of the sea, Francis has great dreams for the air, he really wants to fly - just look at those arms!- but wants to do it sans vehicle.

When trying to convince him Elephants don't usually fly, he simply says " WHy should Pigs get all the fun".

Nothing will stop him in his dream. He's tried many times...

and is yet to be successful.

At which point he cheers himself up with a Peppermint Crisp.

I find the characters so endearing I want them all. Check out her blog for more colourful stories and characters like Dennis.

Dennis is a bear that moves with the seasons, although from the weather we've been having in the last few days I think he might have gotten prematurely excited about donning a singlet and putting his scarf away ( meaning I ran out of the tan silky baby alpaca yarn)

You totally want one don't you?
