About Pauline Collison and her teddy bears

How it all began

Award winning bears

Pauline was born an asthmatic and during her childhood had to be protected from household dust where possible as this was conducive to her illness. As a result of this and the fact that most cuddly toys at the time could not be washed her mother was forced to make the decision to ban her from having a teddy bear. Although she still suffers from asthma, being older it is easier to take steps to reduce the chance of an attack so such extreme measures are no longer necessary. Consequently her husband purchased a teddy bear for her from Asquiths as a valentine present in 1990 and thus started her collection. In an attempt to get an unusual present for her birthday in 1996 her husband took her to Oakley Fabrics to choose a pattern and fabric to make a bear to add to her collection. This bear was called Kit as this was how he arrived and Pauline enjoyed making him to such an extent that she decided to make them for sale.

The name Xipi Totec is believed to be the Mexican Goddess of creativity and what better name could she have chosen for her teddy bear business.

In 2017 Pauline was approached by Hamleys, Regent Street London to supply them with her Steampunk bears.

In 2013 Pauline decided she would enter two of her bears in a competition run by The National Teddy Bear Artist Awards. The categories she entered were 'design a character bear depicting a gardener' and design a character bear from a pattern designed by another teddy bear artist. She won the category for the gardener and came second in the other.
