Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

I get to Labor on Labor day. I have to work. 

AWWWW! What a dear sweet story! I look forward to reading more as the story unfolds. Maybe there will be wedding bells in the future...and then the sound of little paws running around....? 
And by the way---who wants to be sane when crazy is so much more fun?

Oh what a MARVELOUS trip that must have been!!! I am green with envy! Thanks for sharing the photos -they are fabulous! I really LOVE the picture of the bear that is sitting in a perfect teddy bear pose!
Beth

He is a real cutie! I know he will be one happy dog for the rest of his days with you as his new mom!
Beth

AWWWW! such an adorable pair!
I have used the same alpaca tipped mohair and I agree that it is wonderful. I got mine from Intercal. I used nearly my entire half yard piece on one big bear. He is coming with me to the Teddy Bear Jubilee show next month. I haven't posted anything on here for awhile. I'll have to post him as well as a few others before the show for a sneak peak.

Very nice! I love the realistic black bears. I have been making quite a few myself.

Oh poor silly little bear! I am so glad they were able to get the jar off his head.

You are an angel! Jesse is a very lucky girl. She looks like a sweetheart. I bet you will have fun with puppies! Hopefully it won't be too hard to find homes for them when the time comes.
Beth

A cutie pie pup!!!

The company that makes the Furminator also make a shampoo and a conditioner called de shedding solution. The de shedding solution is fabulous. I used a regular shampoo and then the de shedding solution on my Leonberger then used a regular rake brush on her and she didn't shed for three weeks. Normally I could brush just her hind end every day and get a ton of hair out--after using the solution though it was three weeks before hair started coming out. 
  She hated being brushed too.
Oh how I miss her!!! But I did cut a lot of hair off her in the week preceding having her put to sleep with plans on making my own plush Sienna the Leonberger, utilizing her fur for the leg and ear feathering. Her death really put me in a blue mood and haven't made much of anything lately. But I am starting to come out of it so hopefully I'll get started on that soon. I'll share pictures once I do have it made.
Maria, Does Nounours like to suck on anything? Sienna would suck on a big fuzzy ball for hours. I have seen pictures of other Leos that like to suck on things too. i might make my plush Leo with an open mouth and her own snuggly ball to suck on.
Beth

I just saw him on bear pile. He is marvelous!!!!!!!!!!
Beth

Hi Everyone! I am loving everyone's work! I'm working overtime at work lately so haven't had as much time to post as I would like.
Anyway I have just listed Boomer on BearPile.  He is made from white alpaca with all his markings airbrushed on. He has a very wobbly head---
Poor Boomer has been boxed in the head one too many times and now needs to retire to a new home!
Here is his link in case you would like to see more of him:
