My creative space....

In my creative space today, I rewarded myself for finishing orders early. So, just before I start putting everything away for our trip and doing some packing (which I am not looking forward to), I am making bears... 

A new toy always brings an exciting opportunity to explore the colour and fabric combos. I started making bears in the primary colour that they come in, in real life, - browns. 
Then I had a new flecked felt arrive and couldn't resist making a grey bear. It still has a little bit of brown in it so that was hardly explorative! 
Next, Coco Blondie was created. She is a bit more adventurous (although a bit closer to Polar bear) light beige bear with a hint of grey. Her lacy belly really suits her timid and sweet character. 
Now, we are entering more colourful stage of Plushka's bear production. For my first 2 bright bears, I went with pink and yellow. Still a little safe, right? 
On the yellow one I got to try a new fabric which is always fun. That was the only fabric I could find with yellow in it and tiny print to fit his belly! I think a little more fabric stash digging is in order. 

If you would have to pick one, which one would you pick?

Have a lovely creative Thursday!
