Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

It is just small areas like the top of his head and maybe his tummy I'm not sure my bears just develop as they grow

I hope I am wrong and this is genuine, but this unfortunately is a well known ploy as is putting two peoples cheques in each others envelopes forgetting to sign and dating the cheque with the wrong year. When I managed a business before i retired we got that sort of thing a lot. Don't let this go, you must push. I Don't know if you have such a thing as small claims court there, but if you do, threaten to take them to court, you Don't have to do it just let them think you will

I buy Warninks advocaat from  it is imported from holland is this the same as your eggnog
it is very strong brandy eggyolks vanilla and sugar

Can anyone tell me how to tip mohair with a different colour I just want the very end of the hairs coloured.
I haven't ever done any dieing or airbrushing before so don't have the vaguest idea where to start, so again I come to TT the well of all wisdom. :pray:  :pray:  :pray:

Oh thank you so much for the tips Dilu I have already bought more mohair and the shop I supply is keen to try them on their customers, I owe a lot of my success with that first one to reading everyones tips on here. I have designed four smaller bears in the same fur as I had a little left and bought a fat quater to go with it they should be quite different to each other so that is my project for after Christmas.Thanks again

My bad photography I was so nervous gaddigs was out of shot but he is in showcase

Have a great time,  eat too much that is an order  :dance:  :dance:  :dance:

Thanks every one for your support I just delivered Gaddings (my first mohair) and it was a great hit. The customer brought some of her bears to meet me they are all mohair and very sweet. I hadn't thought to tell you before I take the place so much for granted but where we meet is called "The Bear Cafe" I took several photos but I was shaking so much they are all blurred this is the best of the bunch (customer and her bears)

thanks Sandi I have just got back and she loved him it is to cellebrate the birth of ababy expected tomorrow I am so relieved she liked him

Hi Jane

Jenny you are spot on with your definition of boxing day it was also the day servants received presents from their employers that is where we get " christmas box" from

Oh Kate Helena and Jenny that all sounds great I love the thought of the mnen having to pay for their dinner by clearing up "Girl Power" Children are such fun when they start talking 

Just me and hubby eating lazing about and watching old movies. We don't have any family so it will be very quiet, but I love to hear all about all your wonderful families 

thanks Helena I have posted that site on one of my bookmarks so I can investigate at leisure, It looks very good.Thanks again 

Thanks for the info I sent  cheque to the US in dollars and my bank added £10 handling charge,  and I had to have the cheque made out by there internatiol branch and posted to me to then be forwarded to the US customer. Not worth the hassle.

I am from an Italian family as well I remember pizza was only Oregano (green) Buffalo cheese (White) Tomato (red) = Italian flag. A fave at Christmas was parmesan baskets
sprinkle a good layer of parazoan cheese in rounds on a baking sheet ( to look like biscuits) bake in a fairly hot oven until melted into a mass remove with a slice while still warm and shape over small patty tins when cool remove and you have tasty baskets to fill with whatever takes your fancy

hi Dilu I think he had crossed the pond I have had him for a couple of days I wondered where he had come from but this evening he has gone again so he must have got bored with the UK and gone home
