Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Thankyou for the link Sabine....I will definately have a good look at that site !

personally, I would keep it....I know this sounds irresponsible....but as long as its not going to be held by children....i think it would gather value in time !

unfortunately no it hasnt been washed.....I am starting to do that now....its straight off the animal, as I girl who I live near, her parents own alpacas

Ok ....I just read that I can needle felt with this alpaca wool....anyone give me any tips on using it ?

Hi all, I have just got my hands on ( and can get more ) a massive bag of Alpaca fleece....not spun just shawn off ....any ideas what I can use it for? ....Its incredibly soft !

Can i needle felt with it ?

so so cute !!

Thanks Jane...I am very happy with her....I think she will take pride of place on my bed lol....

Just finished my second bear ....I have decided to call her "Cindy"

quite fiddly but worth it , I just love her....

I am slowly learning this....and who ever said this was ADDICTIVE  is sooooo right  :lol:

Please any comments to help me improve would be most welcome ! I do need to work on my fur sculpting skills....but I will get there !

ok am about to cut out another ....

Just Georgeous !

Just wondering how you all get your bears to stay nicely combed/fluffed .....do u re comb/fluff each time you hug it or is there a trick to getting the fur to stay put ?

Any ideas how to stop the bears hair from getting in my mouth and all over the place ?

Thanks for the support...and yes Emily, it was from a pattern....and I didnt mind your ramblings one bit...gave me something to think about !

I am thinking of just putting a diamonte necklace on her.....Faith is for a friend of mine who is battling cancer.....

I am open to any constructive comments, please tell me if and how I could do better with my next bear.

her head sits on a bit of a tilt so , her eyes look uneven in this picture....however with her head tilted it gives her a quizical look
