Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

A cutie and great name!

Thanks everyone! I have a lot of fun finding just the right puppy print fabric for each grrl.

Here is my latest Puppy Grrl. She will be on my website later today

This beautiful little snowwoman arrived yesterday from Nichole of Blueberry Creations. I just love her...she is perfect as I decorate with snowmen. She even has a stand to sit on when she is tired of hanging out on the tree.

My 2 doxies thing the tree skirt is their's too.

I got my tea party posted a day late :redface: I had it in my head it was the 6th. I still haven't had time to visit all the links. The ones I visited were wonderful!

Yes, that's Lexi & Lucy on the card. They star on my Christmas card every year.

I pm'd Jeanette and told her I took a photo of the ornament before I mailed it and would post for her since her camera isn't working.

Yummy! So cute

Mine is finished...just need to take photos and box it up. Since it doesn't have far to go I'll wait til after Thanksgiving to mail it.

All dressed up to go shopping!

I'm with Alison, it is always hard to just pick one from each category! Congrats to all!  :clap:

I have read through all the posts on photography but couldn't find an answer. I am trying to photograph a mostly white subject. No matter what I do there seems to be a glare on the white fur on top. I have a Sony cybershot digital. I use the macro setting. I use 200w bulbs in my light box and get good photos for the internet but I want to print these to submit for competition. I can set the white balance on my camera for incandescent, fluorescent, daylight and cloudy. I have tried a light tent with the 200w bulbs on the outside. I have taken photos outside on a cloudy day, with and without the light tent.  I have tried different ev settings on my camera. I'm kinda dense when it comes to manual settings but if someone has some suggestions I will try anything.

I know some artists sell out as fast as they get bears made but I have a good inventory. As I get ready for a show on Nov 7, I'm trying to decide how many to take. Should I take as many as I can fit? Just the most recent? I have some that have been for sale online for awhile. Should I take them, assuming they will be new to collectors at the show?  This is a show I have not done before and there will be dolls and other collectibles. Opinions please....

I'm up for it too!! :dance:

Perfect kitten for this time of year. Not only is black fur difficult to sew it is very difficult to photograph!

Leave a comment on my blog www.dogpatchcritters.blogspot.com for a chance to win this Halloween pinkeep.

Your creations are amazing!! :clap:  :clap:  I love the little bow on her tail.

Excellent!! :clap:

Perfect!!

Adorable! I love the name too.

Hope is actually my favorite too. I dyed cream colored mohair with Rit teal. I love the combination of teal with brown. I also made one dyed pink ...her name was Love, sold her in my etsy shop.

Thanks everyone! I really don't mind if they hang around my place but I think they would like some new surroundings.

Very sweet! I love the vintage look and the little vintage dress!

Beautiful colors and eyes!
