Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

So cute, Lisa!

Thank you Mary and Pauline!

Many, many thanks for your very kind comments Lisa, Helen and Peter!  I will be downstairs in Hall 4 this time.  Really looking forward to seeing you.  I'm really enjoying my bearmaking after a two month break.  I took time off to do some quilting, and I feel so much fresher for the break!

Stunning, Lisa...like all of your creations!

Thank you, Conni. It's funny how they each take on their own personality!

Can it really be February already?  I'm busy making teddies for Hugglets.  I have hand-dyed Schulte mohair for both Dilly and Peapod.  Dilly has been lightly aged and wears a wool felt daffodil. Peapod has his own little felt peapod.

Two beauties!

Have only just seen this little darling.  Adorable...absolutely precious!

She is lovely - so realistic...and even better, she looks to be a wonderful cuddle!

I love his old-style looks!

Who wouldn't love that face?  What a sweet and gentle little fellow!

Many congratulations to all the winners.  Wonderful work!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such kind comments!

Aw, thanks Peter.  You've made me blush!

Hi Nan

I thought I'd add my 10 cents worth.  If I am really struggling with a bear, I leave it alone for 24 hours.  This helps enormously, as I often then go back, see the bear with fresh eyes and fix the problem without much fuss.  I have found that if I keep 'fiddling' with a bear and get stressed, things can go from bad to worse.  The important thing is to stay relaxed and enjoy your bear making.  Anyway, it works for me.

Sky is available for adoption.  Further information can be found at: http://teddybuys.blogspot.co.uk/p/available.html

Well done, Natascha!!!

Darling!  Adorable!   

Congratulations all!  Fab-u-lous!!!

Thank you Wendi.  I'll add you to the draw.  I have just had a look at my blog settings and it was set to allow people with a profile that Blogger recognises to post. I have changed this now for the duration of the draw.   Sorry about the problem and thank you for your sweet comments!

Thanks so much, Conni and Cheryl.  Your kind comments are very much appreciated!

I hope you had a good trip home.  Peaches looks so happy in the photo.  He looks like he is enjoying life with your hug!
