Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

And another cat is my parent's one also. It's Russian blue cat.

You guys won't believe it! That's my parent's old dog Muchacha. She is 10 and has no teeth.

My brother took picture of her yesterday.

I'm almost done.  :lol:Just need to send bears to Moscow.

Thanks for my white bear Nordic. :love:

Looking forward for new big ones!!

Julia

Paula, Sue Ann, Matilda great bears! Orange one is sooo cute!

My biggest bear is 28 inch. He's got fimo nose.
Now I'm doing 26" bear all hand-stitched :o

Julia

If I use shoe polish on nose I always use clear type one. Good for any color and not messy.
Looks just great.

Julia

Judi and Neysa, I just came back from China. Sorry guys, but the place I went had no glass eyes :mad:

Hugs, Julia

Dilu, I love you!!!  :rose:
So true...

Julia

I have stuff like Deb said for 5-6 medium size bears but...
I keep all scraps left from bears I've made and believe me I need a new closet for it also!  :whistle:

Julia

Thank you so much our wisest advisers!!! 
When I first registered on TT it's forum had only three position. general discussion, Tips and T., and Technical help.
Now look what we've got!!! A whole bunch of useful references, bear galery, miniatures, show info.  :lol:
I say you guys, a big thank you and my respect to your work and understanding of our needs. :thumbsup:

Thank you
Hugs, Julia

Matilda!! Fantastic!!!  :love:

Julia

Thanks Intercal! Trully, somebody is watching us on the way.... :love:

Thank you.
Julia

Guys, it's not China, I mean it's China but it's Taiwan!!! Dammit!!! My mom yesterday returned from Taiwan.... should've asked earlier!!!!!

I'll check the place where I go for eyes. Let you guys know if I find anything.

Hugs, Julia

Oh, guys thanks. I really enjoy this preparing stuff. And since I'm a night owl myself it's not a problem to stay up long at night. The problem is I hate being rushed!!! I love to make everything slow and enjoy every step of bear.. So I've finished one completely yesterday night. What a relief...at least one bear is ready.

There are about 300 bears already on this show acording to the aplications. They also have nominations. 1st, 2d, 3d. best of show, etc.

I'll definatelly post my bears after show. Promise. :thumbsup:

Julia

Carolyn, this is my first show cause this show is only 2d one. The first Teddymania was last year. And I haven't visit any abroad shows yet. Toooo much expensive to get there.

Julia

Kim , Danni yep that's my daughter Anastasia.  :love:

Daphne, I agree with you. That's because teddy bear has a looong history as an artist toy.
But for Russian I guess we are all about the same age 20-40 years old.  :dance:

Julia.

Thank you guys!  :hug:

I 'd better spend less time on Teddy Talk either!  :angel:

Just love to be here.
Julia.

I looked through all fotos, girls you are all beautifu, open-hearted and generous!!  :angel:

I posted already my pictire somewhere I don't remember where. But here is it once again.

That's my favorite "bear" I ever made. :hug:
And my furry bears.
Julia.

.....out there...I like that one, Marie... sounds like in outerspace!! hahhhaaa...
Marie, we had SNOW already last week. It's early even for my place. Everybody was surprised, esspecually drivers...who didn't change tires for winter ones... :o
Today +7C outside pretty cold. I would say freezing for me.  :whistle:
Should've born in Africa....

Hugs, Julia

Kim you are beautiful!  :rose:
:hug:

I'm preparing for my Moscow show November, 14 Teddymania. I'm planning to make three bears (it's a limit of the show just 3 bears) (just 1 is ready). I'm sewing, sewing, and kinda need a break but have sooo little time left. Just one week to finish second bear and sew third one.  :wacko:
I go to sleep at 3 a.m. for 6 days already and feel my mind getting to live separatelly.

Do you guys, have any secret to relax? Or just have a good nap?

Hugs to all preparing for the shows, etc.
Julia

you guys are so funny! Love to read post and have a good laugh :love:

Penny I definatelly understand your feelings about all this Pipa's choccie. When I was a student my campus were right next to the CHOCOLATE FACTORY!!! Can you belive that! I think that was made on purpose to torture students....
I remember that chocolate smell even now. Soooo yami...

Julia.

Judi, I see the small sign right down the eyes. Design and manufactured by Pabol International Inc.

I have a questoin then.. Neysa and Judi, do you know their address in China? I'm going there this Sunday.

Hugs, Julia

Dilu, they are great! I even hear the music!!  :clap: :rose:

Super!

Julia

Nancy I haven't seen your sweet bears and haven't heard any news from you for quite long time.

How are you doing?  :hug: Is your family OK? How is your Stephanie and sweet grandson doing?
I hope you just busy with new creations and soon join us and amaze once again!  :pray: :thumbsup:

Stay and keep in touch. :cake: :dance:
