:clap:  :dance: I just wanted to congratulate you on your article in the latest "Teddy Bear Review"  :hug:   

It was a great writeup, and the pics of your creations were phenomenal     I always admire the work and details you put into your kitty cat faces.  I think your bears are great too, but its the cats that really have my heart     They really look like they're about to purr and speak

Thank you Debbie and Kassie!
Carie, managing editor/TBR, wrote that story. What a beautiful job she did with the writing of it and the use of photos! I was completely blown away by it.  It makes me a little nervous   Now I have to live up to her description! I really didn't know until just before the issue came out. Carie had seen my cats at the Washington D.C. Expo and especially liked the new character cats (that was my first showing of them). TBR asked me to send in about a dozen photos and I filled out a questionnaire. I didn't let myself believe there would be an article until I saw it listed on the TBR website! Christmas Wishes do come true    I can't wait to start designing for 2007!

That's wonderful Karen and so well deserved as your cats are magnificent! I've always wanted to try making cats and dogs but I'm afraid I would disappoint myself too much   
  I'm so pleased to have your little kitten that you so graciously sent, hope you got the email I sent after he arrived . Thank- you so much!

Wow, Thanks Pam, Shelli, Carolyn, Judi, Sarah, Danni, Karen and Shari (yes, thanks for your email about the kitten!)-
Went on a short Christmas trip and came back to this  I feel as though I have a lot to live up to in 2007. I know I'll be on the forum a lot (usually about 7:00am) asking questions and helping when I can. It's a new world out there for teddy bear artists
