Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

WoW... great work  :clap:  :clap:  :clap:
I was thinking Joesph from the bible or maybe Joe Cool.
He looks so layed back as if he doesn't have a care in the world 

Happy Birthday Michele  :bday:  :cake:

Hope things are settling down now for you Laura Lynn  :pray:

Wow Shelli  :clap:  :clap:  :clap:
Just simply wonderful  :dance:  :dance:  :dance:

WoW...... Way to go Sandra.  :dance:
Henry is great, 
you sure he is your first bear, wish my first was half as good 

You might have to make little flippers for your bears Daphne 

Thanks for the warning Judi. 
I haven't sold on ebay for awhile but plan to start again once I get back from my little trip away.
I have had no trouble selling on ebay so far but have had some experience with a couple of dodgy sellers. I really go over their feedback with a fine comb before bidding now. The thing that worries me is that this sort of thing would put the customer off buying on ebay.

I would love to be in this if the deadline isn't too soon.  I have just the animal in mind, but heaven knows how I will go about making it.  It will be a real challenge for me, and I would have to get some different supplies in for this animal.

What a sweetie     
what great work  :clap:

wow Judi.....    absolutly WOW     

Hey Shelli, I emailed you to ask how much we should put together for the goody swap.
Any sugestions????
I have started a nice little bundle for you 

I wish I had a sign ' I only have a kitchen because it came with the house'
You don't know what you've got till it's demolished ........sigh 
Hubbies shouldn't be allowed to renavate. 

I think that your grandma will treasure sharing something with you. So if you could sit beside her as others have suggested then she will absolutely love whatever she creates 

I just had to explain myself on another post about my use of aussie terminology.
Now your talking about birds coming back, and I am thinking 'where did all your birds go'.
It took me awhile to figure out that because of your winters they fly to warmer parts till you thaw out.
I am snuggling in for the winter here, but I guess I really don't know what winter is like for you all because the birds here don't relly fly away for the winter.  Maybe it's because I feed them too much 

To dob someone in - is to tell on them. uuuuuuummmmmmm .....  tell tails.
oh it's hard to change your wording when you use the same phrase all the time.

That is such a low act to dob someone in to ebay like that.   
It would have to be because they are geolous of your bears.

Hi Krista, Sorry I couldn't reply to your private message thingy, but I couldn't work it out so I hope you see this.
YES!!!!! I would love to send to the States 
I am looking forward to joining in the fun.
Bearhugs, Chris H

Oh Susan I hope I didn't spoil a suprise for you.
I didn't realize she was your little bear, she is such a cutie, well done on your ribbon.
Thanks so much everyone for your congratulations.
Now I have to think........where do I go from here????
Gosh I have been hit for six over the award.

oh no, how did they manage that!!!!
It really is the pits.
Hope you can sort it out.

Oh Haley I am sorry I missed you.  I was flapping about all over the place because I was just so shocked.
Patsy told me which table you were on, and then I forgot.
The award was a huge shock as it's only my second competition.
I was also over the moon to win the section of ' Most Inovative Design'
I don't know how to put a photo on here for you to see, but I did take a couple and put them on my web site.
Thanks so much for recognising my achievement.
Oh and isn't Patsy a real darling 

That is such bad luck, it's really hard thinking up names.  I am thinking of changing mine as I do a range of bears not just real fur. I find my name is rather limiting.
Good luck with finding a name, it's such a shame after we all know you by this name.

I am going to see my bears in a competition on Sunday.
I sent them in by mail, and as it's the second one I have entered I am very nervous for them.
I didn't get to see my bears in the first comp because it was in another State.
It's very cold here in Vic at the moment so the rest of the weekend I will be needlefelting and watching the footy 

That's a good question Ginger.
I mainly work around the 5inch, I thought that would be a small bear.
Medium to me would be 6 - 12 inches
anything over that would be large for me 
I have a hord of things for all sizes, but mainly min to mid size.

Non smoker here, no pets inside either, though I do have lots of mohair and real fur flying around at times 

Count me in too Please 
I have a stash for medium, large, and small bears.
I would like things for small bears.
