Hi, my name is Moira thank you for taking the time to visit my shop.
I live in the North of England and have always loved sewing and crafting in general. I studied Textile design at Trent Poly (Nottingham University now, that's showing my age) and have a degree in woven fabric design. I unfortunately had to give up my career as support to students with educational needs when I developed an auto immune system condition. A mixed blessing as I now have more time to create and develop patterns for my bears.
Making bears started several years age when a friend of my daughter's asked if she could make her a bear as a keepsake. Since then many keepsake/memory bears have been made and this is where the name 'Born Again Bears' came from. Over the years I have gathered a considerable stash of fabrics, ribbons, braids and shiny things which I incorporate into my one off collectable bears so the name is still very appropriate and I still love making memory bears alongside the others. I enjoy giving things an alternative second life. The idea of creating more patterns in a variety of sizes and styles has lured me into opening this shop page. I hope you enjoy browsing through my creations and maybe even be tempted to own one.
During lockdown I became obsessed with creating a papier mache tree house which now is inhabited by tiny mice. Keep looking they will probably feature here at some point.

I was absolutely delighted with the Polar Bears, they are gorgeous, very tactile and I love the red nose on the larger bear, they are so cute with their scarves. My order arrived quickly, well packaged and presented. Great quality. I am very very happy with my Polar Bears. Thank you.
