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!

I just finished Aberly Suffolk and I’m waiting to hear back from a customer. I just wanted to give you a peek at him too.

Aberly has all my favorite things in a lamby friend:

Soft velvet, and sweet floral patchwork

Beautiful hardwood button joints, and friendly loving face.

He’s everything a soul could want in a loving lamby friend.

Bramble lived in the family pantry. His job was to stock and organize the shelves,sweep the floor, and sift the flours to keep them clean. He trundled along the floor pointing his nose into corners and crevices spying out choice buggy morsels. This was a great help and something he really enjoyed in the quiet watches of the night. As the sun came up he nodded sleepily as his family of people began their day, and grunted as the little girl lifted him into the warmth of her apron pocket. Here was his favorite place to take a nap…

Meet Bramble Thistlebatch, our very first button jointed hedgie! We just love hedgehogs, and we’ve been looking for a way to make a Craggy Hedgie for the Moor, and Bramble was born.

Bramble is 6 inches tall, 4 1/2 inches sitting. He’s made of heather grey wool, with wheat colored velvet paw pads.

He’s button jointed with our favorite natural hardwood buttons. His eyes are beautiful navy cat’s eye stone beads with a lovely, subtle sky blue glint.

Bramble’s stuffing is weighted to give him that nice,slightly heavy feel we love in a huggable, loveable friend. He has a touch of dry lavender inside too, to make him smell like the sweet fields he loves to trundle through.

Bramble is wearing a little glasz colored plaid vest (glasz is that beautiful color of the sea in Brittany-a mingle of grey,green and slate blue)

And Bramble’s best feature is his beautiful set of loopy wool “spikes”! They are hand crocheted with beautiful chocolate brown fisherman’s wool, and securely handstitched.

Bramble is lovingly made, and one of a kind. Each Craggy Hedgie is unique and will have his or her own sweet look.

Bramble would make a wonderful gift for someone you love, adopt him and add a sweet handmade hedgie to your own home!

Handmade is the very best way to say I love you!
Thank you for visiting!

**We use natural fiber, new and repurposed materials that we gently care for here on the Moor. Our desire is to make adorable hedgehogs like Bramble a gift that’s unique and handmade, and something we’d love to give, and responsible too!

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.

Hallo its Beasley here. This week it was my turn to go on the weekly shopping trip. I really look forward to it, being a traveling bear of sorts. I just love to get out and about, and jumped at the chance to tag along. In our state, there aren’t any laws  regarding bears and seatbelts, so my perch of choice is the dash.

We went to our local thrift store to get some materials on this trip, among other stops.

I’m waiting here for my door to open. Look at the road sludge on the windows! We had quite the snowstorm, and it left its sludgy mark on everything in town.

We didn’t take our camera inside, as there was work to do, hence the lack of pictures. We were pressed for time too, as we usually are. Shopping day is the day we hit town and try to get all the things done in one day, and it can be pretty busy most times. We found some really cool stuff though! Lots of materials for some new friends!

 I stayed in the van while everyone went into the last stop to ahem…guard the Amazingly Beautiful Can of the Best Chips in the World. Somebear needs to be on guard against possible chip thieves. Hey. They’re out there. I should know.um…because I’ve seen them (I must confess there is only one letter separating seen from been….)

I promise I didn’t take it :0) I was a good bear, so I got my very own chip as we all munched and headed home for the evening.

Excuse me…I need a moment of privacy to enjoy this tasty treat :0)

Talk to you soon!

Beasley on the Moor

We know, its been quiet over on our Etsy store. We wanted to share with you what we’ve been up to!

The first order to come in was a for a cute pair of mice who went to live in far away Malaysia.

The second order to come in was for a trio of mousie friends who will go to live in Australia.

 They are some of the first mice to wear the new patterns we’ve been working on for overalls,jumpers, and hooded sweaters!

It’s time to get back to the day, but we wanted to give you a quick update. There are two custom order puppies just finished; and more cute friends in the works too, almost ready to introduce to you, as well as custom orders in the works!  We are so excited to be so busy! Check back often because we’ll have more pics coming soon!

Greg and Reg our Raggy Rat Bros. are here!

We were so surprised when our package arrived on Tuesday!

We had hardly opened the package when they popped right out!

We showed them around, and introduced them.

They jumped right into our routine, and helped with school! Greg helped with handwriting

Reggie helped with math.

“Ooooh Greg, what’s that place?”

“It’s Under the Couch Reg….a dark and mysterious place….”

Greg and Reg took their seats and shared some pizza for dinner

And made so many new mousie friends! Before they all go, we wanted to get a pic!

Greg and Reg are constantly running here and there, playing with the children, and having so much fun. We think they’ll fit right in.

Thanks again Cat! They are just precious.

This cute little Sooty lamb is the first of a line of new lambs to be born soon here on the Moor! I posted pics of Sooty on flickr to see how folks liked her.

 Our friend Cat over at  contacted me and just loved Sooty. I asked Sooty if she’d like to go live with Cat in far away U.K. and she said that sounded like a wonderful adventure!

I’ve loved Cat’s Raggy’s for a long time. Her sweeties were some of the first I visited when we  started our flickr account. I just love her little standing Ratties! They are full of personality, sweet and absolutely adorable. Cat has pet rats, and I can tell how much she loves them by the care and tenderness she puts into the expression of each little one she makes.

So….when Cat asked about a trade, I said “YES!!” right away! I love natural colors, and she made one grey, and one brown.

Here they are! Cat took a pic of Gregory and Reginald Raggy Rat. They are making the long trek across the water to us this week. We can’t wait to meet them in person. The children say Reggie looks like Remmie from Ratatouille so we also hope he loves to cook

So, we say a fond goodbye to Sooty, and get ready for Sooty’s sisters and brother lambs to be born soon. And we eagerly await our little box full of Greggie and Reggie!

More pics to come when they arrive and have a look around.
