About Me
- Martha Burch
- I am a teddy bear artist by profession. I also play rhythm guitar with a local bluegrass band on weekends that I am not off to teddy bear shows. I have a very funny papillon named PJ. He is 10 years old and he keeps me mobile by making me take him walking every day. I love antiquing and use many of my finds for my teddy bears. I am just starting to do mixed media artwork and collage. You can find some of my things my website:www.marthasbears.com

TBAI Gallery piece
Wooo hoooo -- I finally got my TBAI Gallery Piece finished! Yippeeee!!!!!!! Hard to see, but the box has tiny red, white and blue battery pack led lights.
For those who don't know about this Teddy Bear Show, it is a fun convention and show that also raises funds for endangered spieces and the Binghamton, NY zoo. If you only attend one convention-this is the one -- it is FUN!!!!!!! See Details at: http://www.tbai.org

new wool bear
well, I know that I said I was going to use the "stuff" that I found, but I had to finish this guy first.
I used a recycled wool coat and then needle felted the holly leaves. I can't wait to make others.

new finds
I found some great new stuff to use with bears and other critters. There were a bunch of antique shoes at a rummage sale that I got at a good price, some great lace, a green wicker basket that is going to be fabulous with a woodland bear. I can't wait to get some of these finished.

2 new owls
I am having so much fun with these owls!
Here are 2 new ones with fuzzy feet -- both are made from an antique wool Victorian skirt. The gold one has the addition of antique gold thread fabric that looks like feathers. Self standing about 7" tall.
