Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

yay, congratulations Lynette!!  huggies xx

yep, I was confused by the delivery date too, I put asap lol, but Bernhard is so nice and contacts you straight away with an email, it was a great experience.  I got the 1/8 free too, and wow isnt the exchange rate something!  I kept adding fur and checking my total....going back and buying more lol  and you guys in south africa have pretty stamps     Erin, good luck on the dying!     I'll be trying it myself soon

Congrats Joan...that means you need to spend more time on your bears, right?  hehe  :hug:

I just got my Loubear order yesterday, fantastic stuff!!!  I think they have a page about dyeing and washing on their site, have you seen that?  I got their Nora two toned along with some others and oh gosh, its beautiful!!!

Hey Tami, I like to use bead thread, but artificial sinew is great too.  I always put a tiny bit of glue on a needle into the knot as I'm tying it...it makes it all stay in place and sticky while you're tying off so it doesn't slip.  good luck

Congratulations Lisa!!!!  I'm actually planning on making some of your pattens with the kiddies this new years eve and into the night   thank you!!!  you're terrific  :hug:  :hug:

Awww, Jenny, I didn't realise you were so ill   sending you massive hugs!!!!  Is there any chance of trying another med?? Sometimes just a slight change can help, with some you react with worse side effects than others and its a very individual...just a thought, you've probably already thought of but I hate to hear you so ill    :hug:  :hug:

i"m late!!!  but I'm going to sign up now too

Thats wonderful Tami!!!  Congratulations 

Big hugs Louise and glad to see you back here  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Oh my gosh that is terrible Christine!!!  Who would have thought anyone who is paid by the post office would consider doing something like that!  goodness grief!!!!!!  luckily he was found before this rain hit!

Krista, clay is FUN!!!  My sister is into that www.enchantlings.net
Jane, what a cutie    Okay, I think they are a little creepy too, but think some can be cute, like Janes   but....there is a line isn't there....between knowing that your doll/bear is a doll/bear, being able to play that they are real as a cute fun thing, (you know, arthur bear is cold, lets put a jumper on you for the winter) but then being able to turn it off, knowing that the bear isn't real, he isn't really cold (okay, I can't help it, my sillyness comes into play again as i insist that he is real and is in fact cold!  lol,)  But seriously, I don't believe it!  Its part of the play and fun of collecting bears etc.) some people can't turn that off and go too far...thats the line isn't it....they believe they are real through and through deep down with no exception...I've seen a lady get cross because my sister asked her a question about her baby boy..."its a girl!!! How dare you!"....Daphne breastfeeding??...

yep, we walk on our hands too 

Hey, guess what!!  I just went outside and its still there for all southerners who missed it    The smile is above the eyes right now, but maybe in a couple of hours it will be below again?  is that the way they will move?  do the planets stay still and the moon moves, or the other way round....LOL, hey I know teddy bears, not astronomy 

Awww sorry to all who missed it, I should have written earlier, but only remembered at 11pm our time   but the photos are just as good    Almost
