I finished a custom order milk chocolate boucle bear today with vanilla velvet paws. She turned out so nicely! “Willow” is 14 inches tall, a fill-up-your-arms size, and perfectly huggable.
I’m getting ready to finish her twin sister today or tomorrow, and then they’ll have matching dresses.
Willow has that irresistible forever-friend look already. I hope our customer loves her as much as I do. 
Wilber Woolybear bump,bump,bumped down the stairs with his little friend, as she took each step with a jump,jump jump. He giggled a bit, and snugled deeper into the crook of his little friend’s arm. Every morning was the same-bumping and jumping, then tasting and muching, then blissful running and more jumping outdoors in the warm garden sun. Thus was the life of Wilber Woolybear, and life was indeed very good.
Wilber is plain and simply the perfect bear friend. He’s 9 1/2 inches tall(7 inches sitting). Wilber knows he’s small and loves to sneak into pockets, bags and such to follow you on adventure!
Wilber has an adorable old fashioned bear shape. He’s made of a beautifully soft, nubbly caramel colored wool. His paw pads are a sweetly coordinating oatmeal felted wool. His sweet nose and smile, as well as his bitty bear claws are hand embroidered with black cotton floss and much love.
Wilber’s shining black glass eyes look up at you wistfully, as he tilts his head thoughtfully.
Wilber’s stuffing is weighted to make him slightly heavy and delightfully “real” feeling in your hand.
Wilber is one of a kind and individually made, like all our bears here on the Moor. He comes with a card dated and signed by the artist too! He would make a wonderful, original gift for someone you love, or add him to your own collection of treasured bear friends.
Wilber is safe for anyone over the age of 4 (due to small parts) and he would also make a charming old fashioned decoration in a nursery until his friend is old enough to play.
Handmade is the very best way to say I love you!

Nubbley loves sitting on a windowsil with you to watch the birds fly by in the morning. He also loves to sit and read by the computer as you work. He’s full of ideas.

We just had to button joint Nubbley because our natural hardwood buttons look beautiful against the color and texture of his wooly fur.
Nubbley would make a soft and comfy friend to you or someone you love over the age of 3. He’s a collectible, and comes with a card dated and signed by the Artist. He’s securely made and ready to go on adventures too!

Parker is up for adoption over at our Etsy store!
Parker Woolbear is the quintessential soft and wooly friend!

-extra strong steel and hardwood joints made right here on the Moor
-beautiful oatmeal wool felt accents
-handstitched noseose and sweet smile
-glass bead eyes
-weighted stuffing for a nice real feel
-a touch of dry lavender to make him comforting and sweet

**We use natural fiber, new and repurposed materials that we gently care for here on the Moor. Our desire is to make adorable one of a kind bears like Parker a unique gift we’d love to give, and responsible too!
Today Marla Maplemouse snuck onto the Moor and was adopted by one of our Craggy Friends who also adopted bears
Sandy and
Elena. I’m sure Marla will have many happy days with her new family.
Frasier Harington hopped onto the Moor today too! He’s extra special-made of a vintage oatmeal wool. He has a wonderfully folksy style
and a very special handspun wool tail!
He’s up for adoption, and would love to meet you!
Meanwhile, we are getting Tommy and Tillyanna Fieldmouse on their way today, they are headed to their new home with many hugs and best wishes.
Beau Bearsley was born over the weekend. Look at that sweet face! He was adopted a few hours after we posted this pic:
This was taken minutes after Beau was “born”. You can still see the sewing basket behind him!
Beau is waving goodbye, and getting ready to head to Canada with his friends
Baxter Bearsley and Blossom Meadowmouse
And as always we are very busy with more fun friends on the way. There is another very friendly bear who is looking forward to meeting you too! We’ll have more pictures soon!
**UPDATE! Benny has been adopted! He’s going to a loving home in MI**
Bennigan Bearfoot is just passing through he says. He prides himself on being a “wandering bear” but its his dream to find just the right home and settle down someday.
He wandered onto the Moor today and after a hearty lunch of marmalade sandwiches, asked if we could put up an advertisement for him. Traveling is hard, lonely work. We of course said we’d help. He’s a real charmer, full of stories and so friendly, I daresay he won’t have a problem finding a home at all.
Bennigan Bearfoot or “Benny” to his friends is 11 inches tall. He’s made of a beautiful chocolate brown wool. He has super soft burn caramel brown cotton velvet accents.
Benny is 5 way jointed with our handmade, extra strong steel and hardwood cotter pin joints. We make the cotter pins ourselves from galvanized steel wire so they aren’t prone to breakage like store bought cotter pins.
Benny has shining black stone bead eyes. His sweet nose and smile are lovingly handstitched with black cotton floss.
His stuffing is weighted to make him slightly heavy and so nice to hug and hold. He has a touch of dry lavender in his stuffing to make him smell fresh and comforting like the spring breezes he travels through.
Benny is wearing an adorable pair of jean shorts, paired with a coordinating plaid cotton vest. He carries a cute little rustic backpack made of soft wheat colored suede.
Bennigan Bearfoot would make a wonderful gift for someone you love, or add him to your own beary sweet treasures. Benny comes with a card dated and signed by the artist too! He’s one of a kind, and made with much love.
Benny is safe for everyone over the age of 3 (due to small parts).
Handmade is the very best way to say I love you!
Thank you for visiting!
Come meet our new friends! All three are available for adoption today!

Meet Ellie Bearsley! She’s our newest 9 inch bear, full of handmade sweetness.
A few things that make Ellie special:
She’s 5 way cotter pin jointed with our own extra strong cotter pins and hardwood disks. She’s made of a lovely brushed wool in our favorite caramel brown.
Ellie is wearing her favorite handknit pastel verigated cotton overalls accented with natural hardwood buttons.
We thought we’d have some fun and put Ellie on Ebay! Here’s her link if you’d like to visit her, find out more about her, and put in a bid!

Meet Etta! She’s a beautiful pink cable knit bear with suede accents. She was commissioned by a customer for a family member’s birthday. Our customer picked out the material and sent it to us to use to make this very special bear. This is the first time we’ve done this and we just loved the personal touch it added!
Etta is floppy, huggy, pretty and sweet. We hope she has many happy days with her new friend.
