"Just Chillin"
is 100% needle felted sculpture of a polar bear giving his baby penguin friend a lift!! - this was definitely a labour of love as it took over 20 hours to felt it down and probably explains why I only do a couple of solid NF sculptures a year
I hope he makes you smile

Hello Jenny
I know we don't know each other personally - however I feel I know you from here and The Guild where I am often entertained and sometimes made to rethink my opinions on subjects raised by your well written pieces of debate!!
I just wanted to say good for you for getting "back on the saddle" so to speak after beating the awful illness that is "depression" after suffering myself (and at times very badly) I know how hard it is to pick yourself back up and get back to normal life........ so WELL DONE YOU!! I hope all goes well

I am popping in for an hour as we are taking my grand-daughters to an art workshop at the National Gallery in the afternoon...so I will have a quick run round and say 'hi'. Iam hoping to have a stand myself in Feb 2012...after having a few years of suffering from depression it will be my first show for a while...so thought I would get a feel for it again before jumping in myself!!!
The chances are I'll be hanging round the Silly Bears stand for a bit as Julieann will have 5 of my bears available on her stand!
Hi Jane
I Will Be There - Yippee!!! I LOVE Hugglets
Looking forward to seeing all my bear friends old and new!!
I will be in my usual spot - stand 139 upstairs - come and say Hello
