This is my newest creation - Frosted Orange. Why such a strange name? When I was in Italy, I've seen a wonderfull picture - on one winter morning an orange tree, which was cowered with little snow. That was so wonderfull, that I remember it very often, and now I made a teddy, to remember this cold morning in Italy.
Frosted Orange is made from absoluttely special - vintage soviet plush, which is hard to finde now. Hi is filled with polyester, 5 way jointed, black glas eyes, embroidered nose (vaxed), paws and ears - suede, muzle toned. He has an colar, knited by me from kid mohair. His body is patchworked from many kinds of suede, faux fur, viskose and cotton. It has the collors of sun and blue sky, which is so typical to Italy. To represent the frost I used many glas perls, crystals and semi jewels, all in white or transparent. I embroidered whith them chest, head and arms of the bear. I think, it looks just like snow on the orange fruit. :-)
He is on Bearpile now: http://www.bearpile.com/detail.cgi?id=1247&item=35213
