Well I have been working on new pieces for the Sydney Teddy Bear Fair early next month, and a couple of other things that I can't really post pics of at the moment. I rarely have new pieces finished until they are going into the box for the trip to the show, so I don't have any new bears to show you just now...

So I thought I would share these lovely flowers that I just noticed the other day. They are Hoya flowers, I think also called "Wax Flowers". The centres look just like the wax flowers in old Bridal headpieces, and the petals are all velvety. Very unique and lovely- I wish I could get faux ones to trim the bears with!

Hopefully I will get to post some bears before the show.......
