Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

This bear has such a beautiful face.  The eyes are great - its lovely to see someone doing something truly unique.
Good luck at the show!

Sweets and biscuits to nibble on during the day!!  Someone to help you unload and to help watch the stall during busy times (miniature bears are easy for people to steal without being noticed!).  For our two-day fairs, we sometimes take a small square of carpet to stand on, if the hall is not carpeted, as it is easier on the feet!!  You also sometimes see stallholders walking around in slippers on these two-day events, to help the feet!!! (these usually are older people though - I think I would look a bit strange in slippers at the age of 23!!!).
A calculator!!  You should always prepare for that rare but wonderful customer who buys so many bears that you can't add up the total in your head!!!

hee hee hee!!

oooohh!!  What a lovely website.  I have really enjoyed looking at it.  It is fun, colourful and relaxed.  I love the bears in the gallery, although I particularly like the little bunny.  I also love the little crocheted bears at the bottom of the gallery - they are so sweet.  I think I remember seeing 'Tumbleweed' as the BAG Convention a couple of years ago (Oct 2005 I think?) - he is such a sweetie.
I look forward to coming to see your stand at the Expo, and TBAI, when I come over to the states this summer.

Here in the UK we have yet another beautiful, warm, sunny day.  Spring has certainly arrived (for now!)  We have been incredibly lucky, with not even a drop of rain over the Easter bank holiday weekend - well, theres a first time for everything!!!

Wow!!
Those pictures are just breath-taking!!!  What a joy to be able to see your little baby's face before he/she is even born!!
Thank you for sharing!!  I love baby pictures, but I don't think I've ever seen baby pictures of a child so young before!!!

aahhhhhh!  What a sweetie!!

Beautiful!!!  Really beautiful!!
I have a real soft-spot for cloth dolls, and this little ballerina is superb!!  I particularly like her face - you have done a great job!!

P.S. I have just had a little look at your website, and your cloth dolls are superb.  Their faces are just perfect.  I love them all.

Congratualtions guys!!!
How exciting!!!  I love the bear- he is such a character...but it is the bunny that has captured my heart!!!  Can't wait to see the magazine for real!!

:crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:
   

Conratulations on the article!!!
Picture Number 2 actually jumped out at me as showing the bear the sweetest!!
All of the pics are great - so don't worry too much!!  Any of them would look great!!

Brilliant!!!
It makes an excellent point!!

What a beautiful little house.
Your Grandma certainly sounds like she was a very special person.  I know it must be hard to know that the house is gone, but your memories of your grandma and her house can never be taken away from you - so continue to cherish those.  The people we have loved, can live on in us if we always remember them. 
I'm so sorry for your sadness. :hug:

Well done!!!!    Thats great!!!! Just goes to show the demand for your bears!!!

Stunning!
Absolutely stunning!!!
I am speechless....you are just so talented!!

Brilliant!!!     :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:

You were typing at the same time as me!!!!

I also think David Tennant is great - I actually met him before he was in Dr Who, as I saw him as 'Romeo' in Romeo and Juliet at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, and then , by chance, had dinner in the same restaurant as him after the performance, and was able to talk to him and have my programme signed.  I was only a teenager at the time, so it was a real thrill!!

I LOVE Dirty Dancing!!!  I could watch that one over and over again!!
I also love loads of other chick flicks, like Pretty Woman, Shall we Dance, Miss Congeniality, Two Weeks Notice, Love Actually, and lots more!!!

How wonderful!!!
Congratulations!!!!
Have they named her yet?

Wow!
Thats something you don't see everyday!!!
Poor little thing - looks so sweet and vulnerable.

That is so cool!!!
I have spent all day trying to get the clip to play, and it finally did!!!  It was great to see you and your studio.  What a beautiful room!!
What an amazing experience you have had!!!  Who would have thought that first email would lead to all these opportunities!!  Well done you!!
