Miss Mimi

One reason I started to sew my own stuffed animals was – that I don’t really like plush teddybears.  I’m talking about those mass produced plush teddybears which are sitting in those giant toy stores like a super-super cute army that wants to take over the kid’s rooms and finally the world – one just looking like the other. And I wanted to make something different: One-of-a-kind softies for one-of-a-kind children (and grown ups).

And somehow I gave myself the promise to never ever sew a stuffed bear.

But recently I read the story „Goldilocks and the Three Bears“/“The Story of the Three Bears“ to my kids – and somehow I had the feeling that maybe it could be nice to sew a little stuffed bear. Sometimes it’s good to break a promise we gave to ourself – most of the times it’s bad.

But I don’t regret that I broke my promise – and this is the little lady who is completely new in RevoluzZza town: Miss Mimi Bear.

And there will even be a tiny little shop update on thursday where you can buy her and one more doll :-)

With RevoluzZza against the global economic crisis

Wow – yes, I felt a little bit weird when I wrote that :-)

But actually a German newspaper wrote something like that: the Zeit Magazin wrote „Crisis? Which crisis?“ and told about different smaller businesses which are still doing fine – thanks to the internet. Even in times of a global economic crisis. And there they wrote about me:

„Suse Bauer sews custom-made stuffed animals and asks  her customers via email how the dog or the bunny should look like. ‚I wouldn’t sew anymore without the internet‘, says Suse Bauer.“

P.S. Danke Anna, dass Du mich auf den Artikel aufmerksam machtest, ich hätte das nie gesehen!

Next Shop-Update: Friday

Unfortunately this will be my last shop-update for a longer time – I guess. So don’t miss it.

These guys will definitely be in my shop the day after tomorrow:

The Toothmonster and the crazy Teeth Brothers

Most kids (and most adults :-) ) are pretty scared when they have to go to the dentist. But when there are some nice guys waiting for them at the dentists – everything already looks much better.

These crazy creatures traveled to a kids dentist to cheer up the little patients:

The dangerous Toothmonster loves to destroy children’s teeth and make them crooked – and therefore the crazy Teeth Brothers are pretty scared of that monster. But brave kids can save the crazy Teeth Brothers – and their own teeth of course too.

How can kids save those teeth? Well, the dentist can tell you how. :-)
