My name is Janna Sedgwick and I design and create Teddy Bears, under the name Blue Hill Bears. This is my first real attempt to sell to the general public. Most of the ones I have made over the last 15 years or so have been patterns that I bought or found in books, and they were made as gifts for family and friends. 4 or 5 years ago I tried my hand at designing my own pattern and it is adorable if I do say so myself. Shortly after that I decided to go back to college for a Bachelors degree in Accounting, I finished that little project in September 2008.
