Kwezi

Means 'Star' in Xhosa

Here is another exquisite creation using the beautiful Liberty blues to full effect, creating a dreamy secret garden scene. The embroidery technique on this teddy bear is particularly arresting: notice the interesting zigzag pattern on the one arm, the chevron-stitch garlands on the centre flower and the colourful blooms around the striking centre turquoise flower.

Kwezi was born on 13 October, 2011 in Cape Town - South Africa
