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.

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!

Missy Fieldmouse is quiet and small
She doesn’t make much noise at all.
She put on her hat, all fleecy and warm,
To meet her friend in the snowy white storm.

Melissa Fieldmouse (or “Missy” as she’s called by her friends) is a pretty little mouse, about 6 1/2 inches tall. She’s made of soft and lovely wheat colored brown wool. She has soft wheat colored cotton velvet lining her paws, and soft pink cotton lining her adorable, folksy, oversized ears.

Melissa is all ready for winter, wearing her favorite creamy white merino wool stocking cap. It has a cute little glass and wire star pendant on the tip.

Melissa’s button jointed and has beautiful natural hardwood buttons at each joint.

Her eyes are lovely cat’s eye stone bead eyes. Her sweet nose and smile are handstitched with cotton floss and much love.

Melissa is just right to tuck into a pocket and go on any adventure. She would make a fun and unique friend to anyone over the age of 3 (due to small parts, please use your discretion when buying for the very young).

Melissa Fieldmouse is individually made and one of a kind, like all the cute little mousies here on the Moor. She would be a wonderful addition to your collection of handmade treasures, or give her as a gift to someone you love.
Melissa will come with a card dated and signed by the artist.

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 collectible mousies like Missy a gift both unique and handmade something we’d love to give, and responsible too!

Coney Meadowfoot darted across the Moor with Crazy Fox in quick persuit. Suddenly I heard a “Bambambam” on my front door and looked down to see Coney drumming frantically with a big bunny foot. I quickly let him in, and just in time too! Crazy Fox sneered in our direction and darted back into the wood. I comforted Coney with a cup of meadow tea and a crumpet.

Coney Meadowfoot is full of old fashioned charm. He’s  a 9 inch tall, chocolate brown cable knit bunny. He has wonderfully long 5 inch ears. His ears have a pad of wool felt inside to make them stand up. You can also adjust them in different cute ways.

Coney is cotton, with folksy wheat flannel plaid accents detailed with tiny lines of chocolate and evergreen. He’s incredibly huggy and warm and soft. His little muzzle is soft wheat colored velvet.

Coney even has a real cottontail made of snowy white cotton yarn.

Coney’s stuffing is weighted to make him slightly heavy and “real” feeling when held. He’s button jointed with beautiful, natural hardwood buttons.

Coney’s pretty eyes are shining black cat’s eye beads with navy highlights. His sweet nose and smile are handstitched with cotton floss.

Coney would make a wonderful gift for anyone over the age of 3,or add him to a nursery for an adorable decoration! He said he’d be happy to wait patiently until his little friend is old enough to play. (as long as there are no foxes :0)

Coney would also love to come home and be your friend too! He’s individually made like all the sweet hares here on the Moor. He’ll come with a card dated and signed by the Artist.

Coney Meadowfoot is made with high quality new and repurposed, natural and hypoallergenic materials-he’s beautiful and a responsible way to reuse lovely, “forgotten” fabrics~something we just love!

And handmade is the very best way to say “I love you”!

Jubal Westingbear fit right in. He colored a picture with the children and other bears this morning during school time. Then he ate all his peanut butter sandwich at lunch, even the crusts! He laughed at all the silly parts of the story at storytime, and curled right up and went to sleep on his mat at naptime.

He loves to wear his comfy cotton overalls and snuggle under the covers a little extra long in the morning, but just ask and he’ll help with anything he can around the house.

 Hide and seek is his favorite game and he’s so agreeable, he’ll even be the first to do the counting and seeking while you hide. What a nice, sweet bear to have around!

Jubal is 13 inches tall from head to foot (about 8 1/2 inches sitting). He’s made of a soft black wool and he has buttery soft, wheat colored suede accents.

Jubal’s pretty eyes are amber glass safety eyes. His sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss.

Jubal’s stuffing is weighted so make him feel pleasingly heavy and “real” when you hold and hug him.

Jubal is 5 way cotter pin jointed with extra strong galvanized steel cotter pins we made right here on the Moor. His joints are 1/4 inch hardwood disks. He can pose in many cute ways.

Jubal is wearing a set of homespun comfy cotton plaid and flannel overalls with cris-cross straps and snaps at the shoulders.

Jubal would make a wonderful bear friend for anyone over the age of 3, or add him to a nursery as a beautiful decoration. He’ll wait patiently till his little friend gets old enough to play; He’d also love to just come home and be your friend!

Jubal is one of a kind, and individually made like all the sweet bears here on the Moor. He’s made with much love, and comes with a card dated and signed by the artist.

Jubal Westingbear is made with high quality new and repurposed, natural and hypoallergenic materials-he’s beautiful and a responsible way to reuse lovely, “forgotten” fabrics~something we just love!

Audrey Ann Woolbear dashed out into the crisp air to play. Her breath made little wispy clouds around her soft muzzle as she laughed and sang, playing hide and seek around the trunk of her favorite old oak tree. Her person laughed along with her, and silly songs rang through the frosty morning air…

Audrey Ann Woolbear is a sweet 5 way jointed bear standing at 13 inches (9 inches sitting). She is made of a beautiful caramel colored brushed wool. Her paws are lined with an equally lovely and soft evergreen suede.

Audrey’s joints are made with hardwood disks, and our own extra strong galvanized steel cotter pins. This type of jointing gives her an old fashioned look we just love so much. Audrey’s head turns, and her limbs are poseable in so many adorable ways.

Audrey is firmly stuffed, like old fashioned bears we remember. Her stuffing is weighted too, to give her a delightfully heavy, and “real” feeling when held and hugged.

Audrey’s sweet winter hat is made from a soft cotton repurposed sweater with a beautiful fair-isle inspired pattern on charcoal grey.

Audrey is dressable in any of your favorite doll clothes too! Clothes that fit a 12-16 inch doll would fit her nicely (styles vary, so the best way to know is to try them on her).

Audrey’s pretty eyes are amber glass safety eyes. Her sweet nose and mouth are handstitched with black cotton floss and much love.

Audrey would be a safe and loveable friend for anyone over the age of 3. She would also make a wonderfully whimsical, vintage inspired decoration for a little one’s nursery-ready and waiting for play days when her little friend gets older.

Audrey is one of a kind, and individually made, so she’s also the perfect addition to your own collection of special handmade bears too! She comes with a card dated and signed by the Artist.

Audrey Woolbear is handmade with much love for you or someone you love!

When I opened my eyes the whole world was new! First I saw the soft glowing light from the lamp on the dresser. Then, I felt soft hands turn me this way and that. Then a hug from a small child made me feel cozy and warm. I smelled the delicious smell of morning coffee brewing and heard my name for the first time. What will this wide world bring? I love it already!

Kinder Bearmingham is a wonderfully classic, 5 way cotter pin jointed teddy bear! Made of a beautiful caramel colored wool and perfect for dressing in your favorite outfit, and very sweetly poseable. Kinder’s head turns, and limbs hang and move in different natural ways. This type of wobble jointing technique makes Kinder floppy like a baby, but sturdy and able to go on all sorts of adventures.

Kinder is 11 1/2 inches tall from head to toe, 9 inches sitting.

Kinder has buttery soft, coordinating caramel suede paw pads.

Kinder’s sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss. Kinder has lovely amber colored glass safety eyes.

Kinder’s stuffing is weighted with pebbles for a pleasingly heavy and “real” feeling when held.

Kinder’s joins are hardwood disks, with extra strong galvanized steel cotter pins we made right here on the Moor.

Kinder is one of a kind, individually made, and perfect for young and old alike. Kinder is a neutral bear, ready to be dressed as a girl or a boy.

Do you love making doll clothes? Kinder is the perfect bear for you to add to your collection, or give as a gift with your own personal touch!

Kinder will come lovingly packaged with a card dated and signed by the artist.

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

Whew! It’s been busy here this week! Here are some pics of what we’ve been up to!

Stop on by the Moor to find out more, and meet our new friends!

Does anyone need a high spirited, incredibly loveable teddy bear with an incredible penchant for chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream? Grabel tries to be good, but we keep catching him in the freezer…he says its just because he likes the cold, but we know better!

Grabel Bainbridge is a wonderfully floppy polar teddy bear. He’s 10 inches tall, 6 inches sitting. He is made of a beautiful white and black cotton fleck repurposed sweater material that really gives him softness and personality. He has a buttery soft wheat colored suede muzzle, and lovely coordinating navy plaid cotton lining his paws and ears.

Grabel is button jointed with lovely, unfinished blonde wood buttons that match his muzzle nicely. His sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss.

Grabel has shining navy blue cat’s eye bead eyes. We love the unique “moving” glint of a cat’s eye bead!

He has a velvet ribbon collar with a sweet little heartshaped swing tag that reads “handmade with love”.

Grabel’s stuffing is weighted to give him a delightful slightly heavy, “real” feel when held.

Grabel is so huggable, and he loves to pose in so many cute ways (he really is a ham when you get the camera out!)

He is wonderfully unique, individually made and one of a kind (all our bears here on the Moor have their own sweet look!). Grabel Bainbridge comes with a card with his birthday and artist signature. He would be perfect as a gift, or add him to your own snuggle of treasured friends.

Grabel is securely made with new and repurposed, hypoallergenic and natural materials, all gently cared for here on the Moor. He does have small parts, so please use your discretion when buying for the very young.

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