bears, thousands of them!

hi guys, the postman brought me a lovely parcel full of samples of the 'cally's bears' range. i'm really pleased with them! i've been working on several more bear designs this week as this range is to be expanded. their names are tinker, teddy tim, bertram bear, martha marmalade, bumble and kiki (i think naming them is half the fun!) xx
