This touring exhibition of cute, contemporary soft toy collectables features the work of this country's finest designers and makers. The majority of work on show is for sale and buyers can take away their gorgeous collectable at the time of purchase.

Several of these 'scenes' also come complete with a story written by the artist.
Participating makers are:
- Claire Montgomerie
- Rebecca Shreeve (Quirkles)
- Donna Wilson
- Anna Creighton
- The Black Rabbit
- Lucy Moose
- Abigail Brown
- The Felt Mistress
- Kate Toms, Angel Bill Trading Co.
The hire fee is £100 per week and will include one way transportation.
