Bears by JodiWould any one be interested in a LETS PLAY From Start to finish class on making a bear and showing step by step pictures ? It would let the collector see how it is done and help them to value the art. It would also be a nice visual for all the new artists. I am going to start a start to finished series on this TT foram if I have some interest. Please respond today as I plan to start this week end with my next project.

Posts: 280Hi Jodi. It definitely sounds interesting. What would it entail?
Luann
PottersHouse BearsI probably would be interested if the timing is right. I will be gone next week, so I am not planning anything until after Labor Day.
Sounds great Jodi! Just let us know exactly what you'd like us to do and I'll do my best to get involved!

Absolutely super idea, Jodi! :clap:
I wanted to do a simple photodiary of the process for my website, but won't get around to it until I tidy up my study . . . :redface:
Maybe you could post the step-by-step, and we could add any tips we know of for each step?
Or maybe you had something entirely different in mind. Anyway, let us know how we can help--I think this would be of great interest to collectors, beginners, and the rest of us!

Hugs &
WienJodi, what a smashing idea!!!!
Next week my mom is in hospitale but afterwards I´ll think about how I could do this.

Bears by JodiI just thought I would start the sharing by showing step by step how I am doing a mini bear. Smaller than my usual. And doing photo shots of the stages then showing the finished product . And if you wanted to do your next project the same you could share yours in the same way.I will start first, and let every one see how I work then You can share your steps. Just a thought. Maybe it would be fun. Some people have no idea what it looks like to put one together , or even what the pattern pieces look like , or what happens next. Thought it would be good for collectors to see as well as new artists just starting out .Do you still like the idea???
Jodi Falk
WienJodi, yes great!
I had that idea in mind to put on my homepage, in case it ever gets that far 
Gaby
Baird'sBears:dance: Absolutely great idea, Jodi!
I'd love to see how a pro does a mini
Wienoopsie!

Have a nice saturday
Gaby
Baird'sBears Double oopsie, Gaby!
I meant that Jodi is the pro, and a fumble-fingers like myself would love to see how she makes a mini.
WienEileen, oops-oops-oops- :crackup:
I know that Jodi is the pro, and you´re right: let´s see how she does her marvelous works of art!

You guys are funny !!! Were all artists in our own right !!!(PRO) I am sure we all have little secrets we have come up with. And we would go ... " Umm I had not thought of that" So maybe it will make our art easier to find out new short cuts or new procedures. And when I first started , even though I was already creative I had no idea what a pattern even looked like. I am going to do a smaller bear than usual this time. I took one of my 5 inchers and shrunk it down . I have a new idea of how to joint it that popped into my head so I am going to try that. And share it with every one who cares to look.
Hay ladies I really took a 9 year break sooooooooo It is like I am a newbee all over again.And before I didn't specialize in smaller bears either. AND my name was Rankin sooooooooo I am scratching my way up also !!! Web sight is my next moumtain !!! Like I said before The computer is NOT my friend.... but I have learned allot the last 3 or 4 months though. I am sure it will all come around in its own time.
Any way, today is the start of my weekend off.I get every other one off. And First on my list is GARAGE sales !! Hope my friend feel good enough to come with me. Then tonight I will start the project and start doing photos.
You all have a blessed day.................................Jodi Falk
Dolls N DreamsHi Jodi I would love to see it, I'm still very new at bear making so it would be wonderful for me.
Chowlea BearsThis sounds like a terrific idea. :clap:
I look forward to it.
I'm one of those people who love to learn stuff. :dance: Bring it on.........................
Bears by JodiKeep am eye out for this project . I will be starting tonight or tomorrow. Not sure if I will share in stages or all at once. What would be more Fun for you guys? And please jump in and share things along the way .No matter what . Just because I do things one way doesn't mean my way is best, you may teach me something . HOW COOL IS THAT ???? Just got home from Garage sailing and had great fun with a friend. Ate to much,but spent very little and had Great Fun !!! All in all a good day all to my self . 
WienJodi, I guess in stages would be more thrilling
so I could guess what your next step will be and then be very proud, if it was true.....or not say anything at all when I am wrong :crackup:
