Hi I’m Spotty Barkington!

Spotty Barkington

Hi I’m Spotty Barkington!

Can I come live with you? I promise to be good, and not chase the cat too much. I’ll always be glad to see you at the end of the day! I’ll be your best friend and protector against things that go growl, er, bump in the night! I’m just the type of friend to play fetch whenever you want, and snuggle and share the biscuits. So, what do you say? :0)

I’ll tell you a little bit about me:
Spotty Barkington2
I’m 10 inches tall from ears to toes (6 inches sitting). I’m made of adorably nubbly black and white cotton knit sweater material. I have soft wheat colored suede paw pads and ear linings.

Spotty Barkington3

I’m button jointed with beautiful hardwood buttons that match my suede accents just right! My eyes are shiny cat’s eye stone beads. My cute little nose and smile are handstitched with cotton floss, and so are my paws!

Spotty Barkington5

My stuffing is weighted to make me feel slightly heavy, and “real” (aren’t I real? I thought I was real!). I have a touch of dry lavender in my stuffing too for added sweetness.

I also have a little leather “dog collar” with cute heart charm.
Spotty Barkington6
I’m one of a kind, made with much love, and would make a wonderful friend for anyone over the age of 3. I’d make a wonderful gift for someone you love, or add me to your own family! I come with a card dated and signed by the artist too!

Spotty Barkington4

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 mousies like this one a gift that’s unique and handmade, and something we’d love to give, and responsible too!

Coney Meadowfoot knocked upon our door….

Posted in bunnies, hand made | No Comments »

Coney Meadowfoot2

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
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 Meadowfoot4
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 Meadowfoot5

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 Meadowfoot3
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”!

Meet Wilson Bearson!

Posted in bears, hand made | No Comments »

Wilson Bearson wonders about snow...

Wilson Bearson stared out the window longingly. The cold winter wind had blown away the dusting of snow from the previous day. The pretty icy powder had retreated once more to dry green grasses. He sat back down to polish the runners of his little wooden sled. “It’s ok,” I told him, “The winter will come.” I pushed a tiny steaming cup his way. “Have a sip of cocoa….”

Wilson Bearson
Wilson Bearson is a soft and beautiful chocolate brown velvet bear made from a wonderfully classic, vintage inspired pattern. He’s 11 inches tall (7 inches sitting).

Wilson Bearson2
Wilson’s accents are a classic cherry red flannel plaid, perfect because he loves the winter and loves to snuggle!

Wilson is stuffed with wool, and weighted to make him pleasingly heavy when held and hugged. Wilson is button jointed with lovely, vintage wood toggle buttons with a pretty basket weave texture and matching chocolate brown color.
Wilson’s sweet nose and smile are handstitched with cotton floss. His eyes are beautiful amber glass safety eyes.

Wilson Bearson's cute winter wool hat

Wilson loves to wear his soft, cream colored merino wool hat decorated with rustic, old fashioned jingle bell.

Wilson Bearson is soft and huggy 

Wilson Bearson is one of a kind and individually made. He would make a wonderful gift for someone you love who loves handmade bears, or add him to your own treasures.

Wilson is made with much love, and is safe for anyone over the age of 3 (due to small parts).

Teddy bears are wonderful friends, so even if your little one is very small, Wilson would love to sit on a shelf in their room as a decoration until they get old enough to play.

Wilson Bearson 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!

Meet Jubal Westingbear, a Very Agreeable Sort of Friend!

Posted in bears, hand made | No Comments »

Jubal Westingbear

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.

Jubal Westingbear3

 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 Westingbear4

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 Westingbear6

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 Westingbear5

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.

Meet Audrey Ann Woolbear!

Posted in bears, hand made | No Comments »

audrey ann woolbear

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 woolbear4

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 ann woolbear3

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 ann woolbear2

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.

Meet Kinder Bearmingham!

Posted in bears, hand made | No Comments »

      Kinder Bearmingham6

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 Bearmingham2                                                 Kinder Bearmingham

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 Bearmingham3

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

Kinder has buttery soft, coordinating caramel suede paw pads.

Kinder Bearmingham4

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.

Kinder Bearmingham5

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.

Meet Rita Rabbit! A Storybook kind of friend

Posted in bunnies, hand made | No Comments »

Rita Rabbit2

Rita Rabbit seems to have hopped right off the page of a favorite childhood classic! She’s 10 inches tall from head to foot, 15 inches from eartip to toe! She’s made of a wonderful buttercream colored cotton with sweetly matching cotton calico accents. She has a bit of super soft angora on her muzzle too!
Her stuffing is weighted to give her that nice, slightly heavy, “real” feel we love so much.
Rita Rabbit
Rita’s sweet nose and smile are handstitched with cotton floss. Her eyes are pretty amber tigers eye stone beads.

Rita Rabbit4

Like all good rabbits, Rita has a sweet cotton tail, made of white cotton yarn.

Rita is a very special rabbit because she is delightfully poseable. She is 5 way cotter pin jointed with hardwood disks and our own galvinized steel handmade cotter pins. They have proven to be much more durable than a standard cotter pin!

Rita Rabbit3

We love the “wobble joint” set up because it makes Rita floppy and huggy like a baby, but sturdy, and so much fun to carry and pose.

Rita Rabbit is one of a kind, and individually made. Each of our Rabbits have their own sweet look-perfect for gift giving or add Rita to your own Warren of sweet animal friends!

Coming soon! Rita’s brother Rupert!

Because Rita has small parts, please use your discretion when buying for children under age 3.

Rita Rabbit5

Handmade is the very best way to say I love you!
Thanks so much for visiting!

Rita is up for adoption today!
