Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Hi Lydia; Do you turn the cotterpins with the right tool? I don't know the name in english but it look like a screwdriver with a slit on the tip? I have them in 3 sizes.

Hi Shelli. I do the same thing, but i also add 0,5 cm of seems all around. Maybe i doing wrong?

I'm happy for you Danni and i know what you can be your feelings because i also have a clothdoll published in the last Patti Medaris Culea book.

YEAR!! Shelli, I tried and it's work. There's are MANY buttons on my computer which i don't now how to use Thank you for the teaching talent and time

Maybe if you change the ears position and give him or her a mouth, you will be surprise? Give him another chance

Hi Millie I love the colors

Thank you ladys for the welcome. I've posted some photos in a reply for the shelly standing bear question. I  didn't understood yet if i have to open a new topic to post  or if i always have to post as reply? Any advice? Yesterday, it took me hours to make an avatar an upload photos ):

Hi Shelli. For a standing bear, you must also take care about the design( proportions, positions of the joints and the measurements of the footpads).  Look at  the bear on my avatar, he's  standing alone. You must also fill the footpad flatly, not round. When i fill the footpad, i hold it my hand  with the sole facing up and pusch the fiberfill with the hemostat. Hope you will understand something ):
Here are photos of some bruins. The bears upload in my website are the firsts i've made, but i'm working to update it with many new ones.

Hi ladys. i'm Irène and i'm french, so don't be surprised about my bad english. I was firstly a clothdoll maker but since one year now, i'm much a hooked bearmaker. I just can't stop sewing them.I began by using others bearmakers patters, but now i'm working with my own ones. Beeing a doll maker is also a big advantage for my bearmaking because i can use the same techniques, for example to the designing part. I love this forum because it so active and helpfull. All of your bears, ladys are candy's eyes. I'm sorry for you marie, but you have to talk with a lawer. My father in law died last year and it was advice to us by a lawer to do not accept the inheritance because he was in debt, othervice my husband and i will have to pay. Even our children could have to pay if we didn't have money. We didn't accept this inheritance and our childrens had signed some papers to a notary to stipulate that they don't also accept (hope that make sens). My advice is to find advices from a lawer. I will try to send photos of my work if i find  how to do so. Have all a nice day, Irene
