This is just terrible.  It makes me sick what humans do.  I just can't believe it sometimes.

LOL Everyone's reaction is priceless - I couldn't believe it either.  It is rather well done though - I guess if you are gonna do it, do it well  :crackup:

Oh Brenda - what terrible news.

My thoughts are with you... I wish you and your family all the luck in the world.

I am with Shane.  I stuff mine very firmly.  I like them stuffed firmly, I think they display better, and besides - they aren't a child's toy!!!  I know people here don't stuff firmly - so there's no right and wrong, but that's just how I feel.

I would point out that a lot of artists stuff firmly, they aren't chldren's toys.  You will offer  a replacement if you're OK with that.
I always point out that my bears are stuffed firmly in their descriptions - so no-one can complain once the bear is received.

Well, I work in the very same sequence as when I started making bears - so you're not alone.

I started with the body - because I had never hand stitched before, I figured that looked less complicated, and I could learn on that.  Then the arms, then the ears, then the legs, and footpads then finally the head. I thought I would be more experienced by then. I would sit for three hours and stitch probably 4" of thread !!!! LOL  Oooh that bear took me over 3 weeks to make  :crackup:  bear_wacko   that's working solidly too LOL

Then I make the head, completly, then I pop it onto the empty body, then pop on the legs, then the arms.  Then I stuff the arms, then the legs, then the body and close.

Gee, I must be a creature of habbit - so you and I Andrea can be strange together!

Oh Natasha - he/she is adorable!  See  - you're doing better already, you just needed the right materials!!!

Wow, Intercal labels everything? One of the Aussie suppliers doesn't label anything, and my main supplier, the other aussie place lables SOME!  It bugs me terribly.

That is good news!
Just a shame it's too pricey for me to order here in oz!
Danni

Congratulations Charlotte!

Oh Jane, I am so sorry.  This is terrible news.  It sounds like your daughter is OK with the fact, and that's a very good thing.

Take good care of yourself  :hug:

Go Judi - I am happy for you, but you do still make me sick  :crackup:

Danni

Oh Wanda, you are really a wonderfullly beautiful person.  There's just somethin' about you I believe.

I am so glad you got a nomination, you deserve it!  Give that hubby of yours a hug from me!

LOL Shelli, when we got the new computer mid last year, we kept the other one. No-one used it, so it's packed up, and the computer table can now be used for crafts!   bear_grin

LCD - wayyyyyyyyyyyyy better!
Danni

Delartful Bears

Oh Mindy, this is terrible.  I am feeling exactly like Daphne - I should have entered.  I'm feeling left out that I didn't enter (would expect to get a nomination, but I still feel left out LOL!!!!)

But for anyone to suggest that the Toby awards is rigged to allow as many TTers in as possible is just offensive to everyone involved - including the nominations!
