Artist One-of-a-kind

Hello, I'm New Yorker Curly Julie, and I'm an emerging teddy artist. 
I've enjoyed creating things all my life.
My skills started when my mother taught me to sew at the age of five. Being a child, I was obsessed with sewing, knitting, needle felting, and embroidery. During my teenage years, I designed and made different kinds of clothes and accessories. 
However, my interest in creating collectible teddies began much later and coincided with a tough period in my life: when I had to start my life again, on a new continent surrounded by complete strangers. My bears helped me overcome sadness and hardships. 
All my bears are one-of-a-kind creations made with love, extreme care, and attention to detail. I use only premium materials and professional tools. I enjoy inventing and designing my own teddy patterns and creating gorgeous accessories for them. 
I believe a one-of-a-kind companion for a lifetime is a precious gift that can warm everybody's souls.

My bears have found homes in the USA, Canada, Germany, France, Austria, Hungary, and Finland. ​
