| Kiai is a wacky lovable 7.5 inches tall, Japanese style bear with a likeable smile. He is made from short pile German mohair and has some cheeky black hairs on his head. The inner ears and paw pads are soft Ultra-suede. His blue German glass eyes with black pupils sit on white upholstery fabric and black wool fabric. His big nose is stitched in perle cotton. Kiai is filled with polyester and he wears a hand-knit, striped sweater.

| Blossom is 4 inches tall and is made from a custom dyed sparse mohair in an aqua color. She is fully jointed, has green glass eyes, needle felted muzzle and around her eyes. She wears a wool felt flower on her head and her inner ears are lined with a tiny cherry print cotton fabric. Her pet hamster is needle felted and is just one inch tall.

| Bonnie is a very special cat. Not to be alarmed at her headless body as she is a needle holder. Her rather large head can double as a pin cushion and she won't even complain. She has been fashioned from yarn carted and brushed from her namesake and then spun, by her owner, into yarn. Her head can swivel and tilt engagingly as she watchers you sew or spin. She has baby blue eyes and whiskers and her face is needle sculpted and shaded.
