Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Hi Kim, I haven't got issue 179 in imag form but could try scanning it for you, if thats any help just let me know

I have added you to my blog, great look    

Hi Pauline.................no takers yet      but I will carry on til the 31st Jan so crossed fingers

I am all signed up as well       

Well done Paula  :hug:

Hi Amanda and Ali, yes fabric I want I want but me no money  :crackup:

Great idea to keep it short and sweet, I like that, makes it definite 

Amanda, totally agree, keep moving, I don't want a website that ends up with a few bears on it that are old and my website becomes jaded 

Yesterday I decided to start a little sale on my website.

I was wondering what you thought of sales, are they something that happens in the bear world??

When does a sale stop? How much do you sale by?

I thought I would clear the deck for the new year and I must admit I am addicted to the feeling that someone wants to a buy a bear made by me 

Thoughts and advice would be appreciated

Hi Mel, Just wondered if you entered digitally do you send the form by post or just add all your entry details to the email and what is the email address of the entries

Hi Juliet I have just found this little post and thought it needed bumping up to the front.

I was surfing blogs, as I have a new blog, to be nosey  and found this little mag on Vicki (Baggaley Bears) blog and thought I would take a peak

IT IS BRILLIANT and sits very nicely in the sidebar of your blog, so if you haven't seen it take a peak it can be found on my blog, Juliets or Vicki's. It short and sweet but very nice to look at     

Well done you Juliet, sorry we were slow to notice  :hug:

Look no further than Freewebs, now called webs.com. A lot of us use it, you could be up and running in a couple of days and you can import your domain name (for a fee) if you own that or if can get the name transfered to your address. They do have a web name purchase site so if you can't get ownership of your name you can see if .com or another is free

Lisa she is gorgeous, you would never think she was only 3.5 inches     

Thanks Paula have done the same  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Hi Everyone

I have just spent this last week sorting a new blog, I did have a little one on my website but it was very basic.

So now I have a proper blog......................anyone want to link????? please let me know what you think

I have a question, I have a bravenet counter and I can't seem to get it to work, I can get it on to Blogger but after that nothing, which gadget do I need to put it in its driving me CRAZY............................now its working???????? well I was blond and it is Sunday

I collect Steiff and would love this year to start to buy artist bears, when I started to collect a few years ago, my daughter just drooled like crazy.

So we bought her a Charlie bear membership, she now collect those, they retail anywhere from £20 to £100 for the limited, at the bottom end of the price range they are perfect for pocket money savers. They do both plush and mohair........................I suppose I am trying to say, a young collector or a new collector has to start somewhere and that price range is affordable.

These collectors are the future artist bear collectors, little acorns n all that. Something like Charlie Bears would be go really well 

This is my ultimate dream a Steiff from before 1910

Close second is a Three O'Clock bear

After that I would love to own an All Bear, A Portabello bear, A Kelly Dean vinigette, A Judi Paul tiger, A White Forest bear, A Christine Pike bear, A Gregory Gyllenship bear.............................I know there are loads I have missed

Hi everyone, this is a bear I made for a lovely lady called Jane and had not been named yet

He is about 10 inches and has a hand knitted/designed jumper with the company initials on

Do hope you like him

PS Its a cricket ball in the middle

Here is Cookie, who was made for a lovely collector

She is about 12 inches and made from sparse caramel coloured mohair

I do hope you like her, her new mum was speechless

What a wonderful feeling

Ok I got 3rd in my catagory  :dance:  :dance:  :dance:  :dance:

100% and 79% isn't it funny most of us are good with faces :dance:  :dance:

I am so with Joanne on this one :hug:

I would suggest a large m shaped nose (I can't do those) in orange and yellow stripes

Don't redye, would be a shame, come spring when we have had a gloomy winter she will be a ray of sunshine :dance:
