Lemoni

Lemoni (only my second bunny) is so named after a character in the film ‘Captain Correlli’s Mandolin’ and for no other reason than I’ve always loved the name since I saw the film years ago; and as the viscose fabric is a rather pretty lemon colour, it seemed appropriate. Her inner ears and paw pads are genuine Liberty Tana Lawn fabric and she has pretty lemon and pink ribbons around her head.

Lemoni is 8 inches/ 20cms from top to toe and 6 inches /15cms sitting height. She is 5-way cotter jointed, with a wobble neck joint and filled with firm fibre filling and steel shot for a good bit of weight. She has black glass eyes and has been slightly aged around the edges with oil pastels to give a bit of a vintage look.

On her back you can see her fabric ‘Handmade at Bilberry Lane’ label and her unique antique style ‘BL’ pin.

Lemoni’s finishing touch if a lovely little strawberry made from a deep red wool fabric, with a bit of green for the leaves, plus leaf and flower charms, which has been pinned on her chest with a rusty style safety pin.

Lemoni can be purchased for £50, plus shipping and packing:

UK - £8 Special Delivery
Europe - £15, tracked and signed for
Worldwide - £20, tracked and signed

Thanks for looking

Esmeralda

Esmeralda is a 9-inch Heffalump (elephant! LOL) made from a lovely soft blush colour viscose and she is stitched entirely by hand. She has big black glass eyes framed by beautiful long eyelashes; and she’s ready to flutter them at any passing admirer!! A touch of chalky pastel gives Esmeralda a slightly aged look and her big flappy ears are lined with a lovely star print cotton fabric. She is filled with heavy fibre filling and steel shot for a nice weighty feel, particularly in that fat little tummy of hers. A ‘wobble’ joint in her head makes her head loll (is that a word?!!) to the side, but that I think just adds to her cuteness!

The next few pictures show Esmeralda wearing a pretty blue genuine ‘Liberty’ print floral dress – the question to anyone reading is do you prefer her with a dress or without …… I can’t make up my mind as usual LOL – any comments will be welcomed.

Although you can see Esmeralda here, she is also appearing on my new blog, which will be dedicated to my bears. It is called ‘Bilberry Lane’ and will I hope eventually be the base of my bear business – when time allows to get it properly off the ground. You can find my brand new blog here. So what do you think of little Esmeralda?
