Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

We are really please to say we have an article in the January issue of TBCI which is out now.

Even though we have had to take a break from Bear making due to Victoria's commitments as a carer to her Mom. It's a very exciting and welcome start to The New Year!

Hello all , We have not posted on TT for a little while...life has been hectic, and my Mum has been ill ...

We Popped this bear on for the halloween Challenge. She is called Hattie Hobbley and is very proud of her Bright Orange Fur coat! Hope she makes you smile!

Hugs, Victoria and Chad

We have done a 1/4 page this year, last year we were text only...  I too use my Hugglets book a lot!

We are to be visitors this year... SOOOO looking forward to it! Maybe next year we will get to bring the Bears!
Wishing you all, visitors and exhibitors alike, a GREAT day! :dance:

Warmest wishes,
Victoria and Chad

Well I am not Pregnant ( even though Chad and I have only been married just a little over a year!) At 45 I have done my baby bit! ( but surprises have been known to happen!)
I am awaiting the birth of my third Grandchild in November (Oliver, yes it's a boy!) I already have two beautiful grandaughters, Hannah 6 & Sophie 3

Hey guys thanks for your answers    It is a big decision to make, it's always great that someone takes an interest in our bears, but as you all so rightly say " it has to be right for us and the bears!"
We have made no decisions as yet, we are still weighing up all the options.
Many thanks once again for your valued input!
Hugs Chad & Victoria :hug:

Hello Guys,

A question to you all... We have been approached by a couple of Bear shops who have offered to stock our Bears on a Sale or return basis, and bought at a trade price. . After only one year in the business this would be a big step,but is it a wise one? We would value any advice.

Have any of you sold your bears through a Shop and if so, could you tell us the do and don'ts?

Warmest wishes,
Chad and Victoria 

I think she looks like a Ruby or a maud    Or maybe Fifi ...

Absolute perfection!  Beautiful little bears

Hi Gail,

I admire the folk that make the tiny bears... I just cant get to grips with them! ( Through no fault of their own!) Rufus TatterMoon is 15 inches, but remember BraggAbout bears is a couple, and many hands make light work!  
Chad and I work well as team, and seem to balance each other all the time...This happens with our Bear making too! :dance:

Hey all,

Just popped "Rufus TatterMoon" an old saggy, baggy clown in to the Gallery.... He has seen better days but he is still smiling, as all good clowns must do!

We'd like to join in....

Our Bears tend to name themselves! I find that as they are created the name comes to me as the bear evolves....Some of of our bears seem to have the most extraordinary names!
As all our Bears have a little story to tell, the name seems to come first and then the story grows from the name!

hugs....
Victoria

Well done! We shall keep checking back to find out about exhibiting...
