Wynn Mather was born in Suffolk, England, and currently resides in the southern coastal town of Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, England.   As a young woman she knitted, along with her 4 sisters and mother, socks for the British troops during WWII.  Having knitted countless baby clothes for her own 6 children, 8 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren, she discovered her love of making teddy bears and their clothes. A great lover of Beatrix Potter's Tales, it was a natural step for Mather’s creative energy to be channeled into the wonderful animal creations she has been making for the last 15 years.  Each animal takes approximately a week to complete, and the personal touch Wynn gives each of the animals makes them all unique.

 

Mather also takes time to knit for Teddies for Tragedies, a group that knits small bears to comfort hospitalized and orphaned children.  These are also used as packing to protect medical supplies. Wynn is also an avid gardener and seamstress, and a splendid cook and much loved by her family. She has visited the USA several times, and loves Clayton, Georgia where her daughter, ceramic artist Julia Mather, lives.
