OOAK one 1/2 of the twin cats Topsy

Weights 700 grams

Height 32cm

Topsy is made is alpaca and mohair with Steiff Schulte plush (white). The stripes on his leg, arm and tail have been created by individually cutting a coloured stripe in either the pink or dark purple and stitching them together, rather than buying a stripy fabric. This permitted me to bend the strip around the ankle to the foot more realistically.

With everything changed due to Covid-19, the world seems upside down and in chaos. To reflect this I have created the characters Topsy and Turvy, twin cats that are inspired by Lewis Carroll’s characters the Cheshire Cat and TweedleDum and TweedleDee, (Alices Adventures in Wonderland and Through the looking glass.) If you were to put the Cheshire Cat and the Tweedles into a bag and shook it to mix things around you end up with Topsy and Turvy!

If you are interested in adoption Topsy &/or Turvy please contact me: ours@pic-nic-bears.com.

Many thanks
