Back to my first love - big smiley Ted

Oh how special. You make some fabulous things. Well done.

Should have added, someone else makes the other 3 ‘professional’ hand puppets. They’re rather fiddly to make so the organiser of the charity suggested splitting the load. She’s always short of the sets, which go in every box to the therapists.

Oh - how special!
So good to know that they will be used to help children who are distressed and have probably faced some trauma.
Thank you, Witzend, for doing something that will help so many.

No surprise that Big Ted is smiling so broadly as he’s also looking forward to helping others!

I just love them!
After all the work you put into them how can you bring yourself to part with them?
They do, however, all look very happy to be off to their new home.
Where are they going witzend?

They go to a charity that distributes them to children’s therapists all over the UK. They are much needed - there’s always a waiting list. I’m happy to see them go - I love making things and it’s that much more satisfying when they’re wanted and very much appreciated.

I just love them!

Witzend - Ted is lovely. I love him.
I can tell from his smile that he just loves his multicolour jumper.

Please show us mini Ted when he’s made.
You are clever to make something so delightful.

Thank you, blue14.
Here are both Teds plus latest ‘professional’ hand puppets - all now packed up, ready for the postman tomorrow. 🙂

Ted is fantastic!

I love this Ted! 😀

Big Ted is gorgeous and so are the two little bods in scrubs.
Where are they going off to?

Just so he doesn't feel left out, Old Ted is pretty special too.

I find threading the needle possibly the hardest part.
This might all change when I’ve recovered from my second cataract procedure.

I would love a Ted xx

The Ted's are adorable.

Thank you all for kind words. Ted is very happy that you like him. 🙂

Wonderful, Witzend!

He is lovely. I wish I could craft something but my hands are very distorted now and its hard to grip anything.

Great job Witzend - I'm sure that they will do good work.

Cute! I love his jumper too 😊

He’s great. I love his jumper.

Aw, he’s lovely.

I completely admire you creative people, I cannot draw, or knit, can barely thread a needle and would like to learn, but somehow never seem to grasp things.
