Kim - yes he is wonderful - I saw his pictures las t night and what a lucky old person I am - I am looking forward to snowy joining my household.
By the way - I showed his pictures to John last nite( I printed some of them out!!) and he thought he looked terrific - this is real praise from him - half of the bears I make he kind of turns up his nose at   
So looking forward to Snowie arriving
Thank you Kim  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Daphne,
What a worrying time for you and your family -  my thoughts are with all of you

Warmest hugs
Anne

Kathy,
She is such a little sweetie, :dance:
Her eyes and nose are simply wonderful
She looks quite tiny which makes her even more terrific!!
Is she long pile uv??
:hug:

Aaaww Sarah, Marion, Kathy, Melissa,
Thank you so much for you very kind words :hug:
Kathy I have to wear glasses for close work and sit under a lamp - otherwise I would have very chewed up fingers 
:hug:  :hug:

Amanda - Your avatar is super - love the wording  

what a fabulous name for Penny - Penny Poppins :clap:  :clap:   

A twitch of her wrist and a flick of her mouse and voila  

I know I am a lucky one too - I got a new avatar designed by Penny  :hug: :dance:  :dance:

Mel
Your website is great :clap:  :clap:  :clap:
Nice navigation - excellent pictures :dance:
and did you make the kitty/cub on the world?? It is terrific was it a ooak??

:hug:

Thankyou  Sue Ann, Amanda, Kim,
Amanda I only pricked my fingers twice but I also broke two felting needles
Kim - I used a fine leather cord that I got from an art store locally - I tried thread on a bunny I am working on but felt the impact was small so I tried this
I am ever so glad you like her 
:hug:  :hug:

This little one will be going on ebay later today but I thought I would post her in the mini's to see what you think of her toes - which I have needle felted.
Her eyes too I have experimented with by using the techniques suggested on TT for the eyelids -thank you everyone for the tips and advice :clap:
Her Name is Manya and she is 3.5" sitting
:hug:
Anne

Anyone remember the Waltons??

Well when I come on Teddy talk it is mainly at night fairly late at that - but when it is time to sign off to go to bed like it is now (otherwise I will have a dreadful problem getting up for work )

I wish I was a Walton on Walton's mountain and I could just shout
GOOD Night Everyone

Sorry if that sounds soppy - I just love everyone on TT
:hug:
Anne

Oh my you are so - well-  young Kimberley
Having said that I think the first /top photo is excellent and sophisticated
the second makes you look full of fun
I think either would be just wonderful as you look a super nice person in both

Hi Irene,
A site I advise my students to access is
http://www.w3schools.com
it has lessons from beginning upwards - may be of use though I use in in conjunction with my own teaching slides - you are wllcome to my set of basic slides for beginners in html (this would be using direct codes in a web page rather than using a page generator software which has drag and drop  if you want - I can send them in an email attachment - I am not at a very advanced level as I stick to the basic curriculum but I do maintain my own site - I use a free template and then add my own bits
:hug: Anne

Amanda - what a pretty little koala - such a sweet color :clap:  :clap:  :hug:  :hug:
Excellent close up too
:hug:

Hi JAn,
I agree with the others - definitely hemostats - tho I only ever use the straight ones - sometimes it is easier I find if you start from the other end - eg start to turn from the end that does not have a paw pad if it is arms or legs - I hope that makes sense - I find that doing it that way around my turning does not bottleneck either at ankle or wrist
Good luck with the turning and a warm welcome to teddy  talk - Everyone is just wonderful here  :hug:
:hug: Anne
