Shelli  -  What attracted you to making beads?

Chowlea Bears

What a brilliant thread.  So interesting - Thank you all for the discussion and the pics. :clap:  :clap:

MY heart goes out to you..............

I lost my little chap  almost a month ago. I was devastated - I lost one stone in weight in two weeks, I wasn't  thriving.  Its absolutely awful.  Although I have two new little treasures - he will never be forgotten - he helped me so much - but sadly his work was done here.

Lucy will always remain in your minds eye - and you did the last thing you could for her - stop her pain.

She will be waiting for you by the Rainbow Bridge - I cling on to that thought myself - there will be fourteen others there - all fit and well - waiting just for me. What a reunion that will be.......................

Chowlea Bears

Wonderful  :clap:  :clap:  Congratulations - you should be well pleased. bear_thumb

Chowlea Bears

Thanks everyone for all the help........BRILLIANT.

I'll give it a try................

If I scan something into the computer and enlarge it (pattern component) - how do I get it to print the enlarged version?

I seem to be able to enlarge it to 'view' as it were - but printing reverts to the original size I scanned in.

What am I doing wrong please?

Chowlea Bears

Can I just compliment you all on your fantastic Avatarsbear_thumb 

They are really beautiful works of art.  :clap:  :clap:  I know some of you talented souls have made special ones for Christmas but they are all gorgeous.  (No names - no pack drill as they say)
 
I find I get a bit disoriented when people change them too often because I have associated them visually with certain people ( that's their job right!!!!!! :doh: ) but I know you all like like a change.

Anyway - just thought I'd congratulate you all - heaven knows what you'll come up with in 2007.

There are some scrumptious creations about too - many of you obviously weren't taking it easy over Christmas -  :crackup:   :crackup:

Chowlea Bears

How sweet is that...........

Adorable.   :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

Chowlea Bears

Thank you for this thread - its something I've always yearned to be able to do. I'm such a clutz and I don't think the ridicule of one's efforts in school did anything to help my feeling of inadequacy.

I do doodle - but its chemical formulae -  how sad is that????????????

Chowlea Bears

He's really sweet and full of character  Gemma - what is it about him that your not sure of?

Chowlea Bears

Thank you for your kind words.

did you ask for them or where they a total surprise?

No one to ask I'm afraid - I couldn't stand an empty house after my last little pal had gone - I lost so much weight in such a short time - wasn't good. I got a phone call asking me to come and look - well that was that really.

Did you happen to see Tammybears latest ebay creation

I've just looked - absolutely amazing and so correct (breed standard and all that).

Are they Pekingese???

Yes they are - adorable but feisty in character not temperament - they think they are Great Danes in disguise.

Thanks again - didn't mean to bore everyone - just needed to share.
