Hello all! bear_wub  I know it has been a long time since I last posted "sorry". So much has happened in the last 6 months, I sold my home met a wonderful new man bear_wub  bear_wub  and moved in with him we are now looking to buy another home together, my weekends are taken up with sailing, Started a new job and discovered Facebook lol. I have also started making bears again although not as many as I used to but getting there slowly.

It is lovely to see all your wonderful bears there is so much talent here on teddy talk. I will try to be more active and visit and post as often as i can.

Big Huggies.

Hi Kay I am not doing to bad hun I just wish I could get back the creative juices, my bears are rather thin on the ground at the moment I have only made 2 in the last couple of months I need to do at least 1 a week if I am going to manage with only a part time job when I do finally get around to moving back home to Wales.

Ok at last I have managed to put together a website something I have been meaning to do for a while I cheated a little and resurected the layout and graphics from my old pixel painting site. There is not much there at the moment but I hope to be adding more over the coming Days. If you would like to visit the kettle is on and ther is a plentiful supply of choccie biscuits but if you hate pink then stay away lol bear_whistle  bear_wacko .

I was looking for a hobby and tried a few different things without any success then I saw a bear made out of pipe cleaners on ebay and thought I can do that. I hate sewing so it was ideal for me, So I bought a kit but no matter how I tried I could not get the pipe cleaners to resemble a darn bear. I then saw a mini bear kit and bought it and managed to do it and was hooked on my new hobby. Now I am amazed at myself and still hate sewing apart from my bears.

Japhe

I can vouch for Mo Honeysuckle furs on Ebay as well her fur is amazing and so very soft yes there is a little stretch but not to much. I have bought from the throw company before but to be honest I prefer Mo's there is so much more choice and she is such a lovely lady and delivery is ultra quick In my opinion she cant be beaten. Plus Mo is always on the lookout for new and differnt Faux's.

I always use Bonded Nylon for every part of my bears it is very strong. I was going around a car boot sale a few months after I started bear making and saw 6 huge reals  for 50 pence each I didn't realise at the time how much of a bargain I had and now never use anything else.

On the Dental floss front my first 5 bears I used it on the eyes luckily I only sold one of those bears the others I still have and one of them the floss did break  I could pull the eyes right out of its head poor thing but the others are still solid

Thank you hun it must be me because I have just been able to sign up using Firefox bear_grin  No go at all with IE so think my security settings must be to high.

Hi has anyone else had problems signing up with freewebs?
It has been driving me nutty all I get for the sign on page is a blank white page bear_ermm  I was thinking of building a website and was going to use geocities but I dont like the banner down the side of the page so thought I would give free webs a shot Grrrrrrr I am sure it must be my security or something on my PC blocking it.
I am just going to try using the firefox browser see if that works :pray:
