Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Oh how beautiful , does he snore, your pic makes me want another puppy too!!

I too would love to go, boy you are brave linda going by yourself!!!
Can't wait to see the photos and good luck to everyone, I'm sure you will have loads of fun :dance:

Judi, he is absolutely beautiful     You have really captured the essence of such an awesome animal :clap:  :clap:

Big congratulations to all the winners :clap:  :clap:  :clap: Very well deserved by all  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

AAwww Mikki, you're so clever  

Thanks for your comments, I no longer have him at home and really miss him...oh well....on to the next one

:clap:  :clap:  :clap: Well done Judi, he is wonderful :dance:  :dance:  :dance:

Wow Sandi, I had no idea you were doing this, how wonderful :clap:  :clap:
What a beautiful boy  

He he he, you're too funny

Reading this I just have to say that they refunded my credit card within 2 weeks, although it did take a while for them to reply to my email . I'm in Australia, seems weird that they are mucking you guys around with cheques and it has taken this long . Hope you get it sorted soon :hug:

Big congrats to you Wendy, that's so wonderful. Shame we didn't get to have a chat at the show, you disappeared as quickly as you appeared...or was that on purpose  

Thanks Melanie, well he is finally finished and off to his new owner tomorrow, boy, she has been patient waiting for him!!!

Thanks guys, I had a great time designing him,the real Tyson has such a gorgeous face (if you love bullies)   ......it was something I just had to attempt 

Thanks Judi, that was the first time I'd seen it, I balled my eyes out , it was sooo beautiful

Boy, that really sux, how frustrating for you, all that time and effort wasted, must make you feel a bit 

Man, how do you think I feel, I hate being the centre of attention and have those shy attacks too, I'm actually dreading it now  
I may just do an open question demo, where everyone else asks me how I do things, maybe I might have all my patterns on display and demo how I make each one, boy, nothing like leaving it till the last minute

Ah Wendy, I know what you look like now, so you won't be able to hide!!!!
Anyway, us bear makers are apparently demonstrating at the actual Teddy stand rather than the workshops they've had in the past.
I'm not doing anything exciting at all, I'm not even doing needlefelting, I've just released a new pattern featuring mini bears, where I've turned one bear pattern into 3 other critters, so my demo is how I've tweeked one pattern to make another 3   I'm not even sure at this stage how I'm going to demo that :doh: , anyway, I'm sure everybody else has something exciting to see though.
Wendy make sure you introduce yourself cause you should be in there with us

Congrats Tracy, your bears look wonderful :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

HaHa, that was only one person :doh: and he's grown out of his "devil spawn" stage now thank god

Thanks for your comments guys, yes the slobber is a tad yukky, that's why we chose a Rotty over a Mastiff

Please meet Tyson, he is a Bull Mastiff cross, commissioned by his very proud owner. The real Tyson is featured on the "Best Friends" page of Russell Bears website, www.russellbears.com .
Thanks for looking 

    How absolutely gorgeous, what a wonderful story

Wow, what a great show, congratulations Samantha  :clap:  :clap:  :clap: and thanks to all for sharing all the wonderful piccies with the rest of us.
Wish Australia wasn't so far away

Mine too, I don't think it will be problem for you

I cannot make it to either this year   although a few of my bears will be attending Winter Wonderland "in the fur", hope they enjoy themselves
