Nose floss!...what is so funny about that..
Sue Ann, he is adorable!!!!! He looks so happy, he must have gotten what he wanted!
I love his red jammies and I love his tree as well.
Helena, he is adorable!!!!! I don't see any thing wrong with him either, he is sooo cute and so tiny!
She is absolutely adorable! She has such a sweet and calm expression. Your before bear is cute also but Narni is outstanding and has so much personality.
He is gorgeous, Bonnie!!!
Tania, he is wonderful! Public choice is the greatest honor!
Marion, he is wonderful!!!
I just got my copy, this is the first time that I have advertized anywhere and it was was nice to see all the Teddy Talker's in there. I didn't realize that you were on the back cover as well Sue Ann, way to go!!!!!
Very cute, Neysa and very different! I will look for him when my copy arrives.
Well said Daphne! This is a wonderful place filled with very helpful caring people, I am so glad that I found tihs site as well :hug: :hug:
Thanks Judi, he is adorable!
Kim, I loved your "Grandpa" story
What you said is so true!! It is nice to be able to talk about gussets, & nose wax etc. and not have to explain what you are talking about first! I recently showed a friend a bear that I made from a brand new pattern and her comment was "he's cute, just like the others"......in other words, she didn't see any difference at all!
Deb, I like you idea of a mark that you have to feel for, it would be permanent but not take away from the bear. I use a tiny tag in the back of the leg on mine.
We will open presents at home Christmas morning and then drive 2 hours to my sister's house. We will spend the night there and then visit John's family, who live in the same area, on Boxing Day. My family is quite large and every second year we all get together for Christmas. That was last year and there was 35 - 40 for dinner, this year will be relatively quite with about 15 of us getting together.
Nettie, a walk on the beach Christmas Day sounds wonderful, some day I would love to do that!
Very nice Judi, That is something to keep in mind.
Thanks so much, Pam. It is always nice to be aware of things like this.
Anne, she turned out wonderful!!! She is absolutely adorable, I love the look on her face, she looks like she knows that she is special, and your clamshell and accessories are perfect.
Shantell, I have Ted Menton's book called Bear Studio and I like it well enough but my favorite of all is Nancy Tillberg's 101 Bears book.
That is exciting Dilu!
I would be a nervous wreck if tried to wait to the very last minute to bid. I just bid what my maximum is and then hope for the best.
Kim, I have heard that, Linda Mullin's book is very good. I love books and have quite a few on bear making, but I don't have that one, and what a good buy!!
I noticed in the feedback that one of the bear artists had bid on her bear herself. That was a good idea, if you put a high enough bid on no one else will end up winning the bear and then you can also leave negative feedback.
That is funny!
He is adorable!!! I love all of his egg bits around him. He is so cute.
Heather, I just love your little dragons as well!!!!
She is just as cute as she can be!!!!!!! I love her wild mop of hair!
Mel, he is hilarious!! I burst out laughing when I saw him
the poor little guy is adorable!!!!!
What sad and shocking news. I didn't know Laura personally but I loved her cute little bears and I will miss seeing them on ebay. My condolences go out to her family, there is no good time of the year to lose a family member but this is the saddest time of all. The bear world has lost a wonderfully creative and original artist.
Hayley, my nails are exactly the way that you described yours...bendy, breaky and they bend over backwards easily. I have tried nail polish and nail hardners and they didn't work. I am going to look for Revitanail and give it a try. Thanks!
