I have a large collection of bears myself and I know how it feels to look at a bear and fall in love with it. When you have to buy a bear because you cant leave it in the shop. Hi, I am Susan Pryce and I am a thirty six year old mother to 2 boys and a girl and I have a husband called Phil. I live in the Northwest of England on the Welsh Border, near to the city of Chester. I am a hairdresser by trade and I have loved craft from when I was little. I used to make tapestries and cross stitched pictures and rugs. More recently my hobbies have been card making, scrapbooking and altering items. I started making bears because I wanted something to do in my spare time. I had collected beanies and bears for a long time and I thought I would have a go at making a bear. That was in October 2000. I used patterns out of magazines to start with and some fake fur. My boys have the first two bears I made. They were very primitive though with ears that were lop-sided and the eyes didnt match. After a lot of reading about the subject and lots of really good advise from other bear makers Scruffie Bears were born. I now design all of my own bears.
