Hi everyone,  :hug:

I wanted to share my news with you all... I entered three entries in the TBAAF (Teddy Bear Artists And Friends) awards and they won.  Chunyi won first place in the Teddy Bear Category, Charlotte won first place in the Miniature Bear Category, and Ciera won third place in the Cats and Dogs Category.

Oh no... I can feel a happy dance coming on again!   :dance:   You'll have to excuse me - these are the first awards I've won so I'm very excited!   :dance:

Thank you to everyone who voted for my bears in the TBAAF awards... you made this a great week for me!

Congratulations Melisa!  Your work is fabulous.  Take that as absolute truth from someone who has admired it for years.

So happy for you, it was well deserved,
Joanne

I will say there were some amazingly beautiful bears, dolls and other animals to be seen.  Everyone really stepped up.

Thank you Joanne!   :hug:  And I agree... I was really impressed by the other entries - it was very hard to pick favorites as there were so many wonderful bears and friends in the competition.   bear_thumb
