Hi everybody,
please take a look at the picture. What do you think, these 2 are yelling at each other?
It is not as frightening as it looks , these two are best buddies and were actually playing. I got this picture when I put my camera in sports mode (taking several pictures in a row).
Hugs,
Marion 
Hi everybody,
I wanted to introduce you to Candice, a bear that will go to the IDEX charity auction. Candice is 11.5" tall, ooak and entirely crocheted from a blend of different threads without use of any pattern. I hope she will help to raise money for a good cause.
Hugs,
Marion

I watched the slideshow for a second time and discovered that you don't have to wait for the next picture to come up slowly, you can just click on the arrow on the right lower side and the pictures come up as you would like to see them.

Marion
Thank you for the wonderful pictures. You really get an idea about the show
I had to download an upgrade/update (which my computer prompted me to do so) and it took a while for the file to open but then it started, yes it is slow but worth while the time.
I think Jeremy did the slideshow in powerpoint, so I don't know if you have to have this program.
Thank you, Maria and Jeremy, for taking us to Muenster.
Huggies,
Marion

Congratulations, Maria! 
As always, no real surprise to me. Your work is outstanding!
Did you see page 34 in TEDDYS Kreativ? 
Someone from Germany sent the page to me.

Hi Maria,
as I told you before, Nounours is absolutely gorgeous and I love 
all pictures of her. Maybe I get to meet her one day in person at a teddy show, in case me coming to Germany and a show in the south of Germany fall in the same time. If not, I guess we doggie owners will have our usual meeting at the Euro-Teddy.
Huggies,
Marion
I love looking at your pet pictures and I think the idea to show them is great.
Here are my pets:
The picture "Florida Lifestyle" shows our German shepherd Cindy with our kitten Mexx, Mexx sleeping in his favourite flower pot and Macey, our shepherd-hound mix living the good Florida life.
My daughters brought Mexx home from a barn where the older cats, including his mom, had died of rat poisening. Mexx was the size of a mouse, starving, and the prognosis wasn't good at all.
Our shepherd Cindy "adopted" him and tought him all a dog-cat needs to know. Mexx turned into a huge (20pounds) Main Coon cat and is now happily roaming the golf course in South Florida.
The other picture shows our new German shepherd "Madison". Cindy had to be put down last year because of age so we adopted Madison when she was 6 months old. She just turned 1 year and keeps us pretty busy. Her favourite spot is the pool where she spends the majority of the day. She jumps in whenever she gets a chance (and then walks soaking wet straight into the house).
All our animals are rescue animals and we love them very much.
Hugs,
Marion
Thank you to everyone who took the time to check out my website.
I appreciate your comments since these are helping me to make my site visitor friendly and to get feedback on how appealing it is to a visitor.
It also helps me to know that the site uploads fast and is easily to navigate.
At first I was not sure about the background colors and wanted simply to stay plain white. Then I decided on the pastel colors to achieve a "nursery feel", since my bears are mainly baby bears.
Thank you again
Hugs,
Marion

I have "reworked" my website and would love to hear your comments as well as suggestions. Thank you for looking!

Thank you all for the nice comments.
Marlys: It doesn't make a difference, but the bears and outfits are crocheted.
Rita: The yarn I used for the outfits is very fine cotton. The yarn for the bears is different. You crochet with it and after your work is done you brush it and the brushed yarn turns "furry".
Wendy: These are my plans: I will take the two bears on Saturday to a show where they might find an adoptive mommy. By the way, the pot is not a pot (as in cooking), but a bath tub. You can't really see it in the pictures but it gas grooves on the sides. I brought it one year from the Euro-Teddy in Essen.
It was so inviting to take a picture with the little bear in it. It reminded me of one of my daughters sitting in a bathtub fully dressed when she was approx. 3 years old. lol

What a cute little bear. I love her crocheted outfit. She seems to enjoy the smell of the flowers.

Hi everybody,
after making almost only bears around 15" I have finished 2 little ones: Kiki (7") and her sister Tara (6").
Both are crocheted from "magic thread" which becomes "fur like" after being brushed.
Hugs,
Marion
