Sally Scotford with her bears from spares
A RAGTAG bunch of bespoke bears will be popping up in Moreton-in-Marsh next month.
Cirencester creator of Bears from Spares, Sally Scotford, has been invited to take part in the town’s pop-up shop initiative.
Her variety of cute creations, which can be made from children’s clothing, favourite fabric or a jumble of spare materials, will be available to buy and order in the shop from March 15.
Sally said the inspiration for her new business came from her own children, aged three and six.
"Their baby clothes were just in the loft, so I decided to turn them into bears," she said. "People saw them and wanted to order one too and it just took off."
Sally said she hopes the pop-up shop will raise the profile of her business further.
