Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Interesting newspaper supposedly photographed its reporter eating spiders!

Now, THAT is what I call cute!!              

I love his beautiful little paws grasping onto the bottle!

I agree with Peter, it's got to be just about the best job looking after little animals!

Thanks for posting.

Ah-ha!  So this is the little bundle you were talking about!  Yes, they both look very sweet together, they complement each other very nicely!
Just goes to show that listening to your inner voice works every time!

Hello Peter,

I am thrilled that you had such a wonderful time and it was lovely to meet you.  Sorry that your weeks of planning went out the window!!!!  He!

Still, you will have no problem next time!  Hope Robinson is behaving!

Speak soon.

Hugs,

Marilyn.

Hello Jane,

You are wonderful you know!!!  Feeling grim yet still putting together this wonderful photo album for everyone! :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

I have been away for a couple of days so was itching to get to see all the bears as I didn't have a chance to get to the other halls to see any of the bears during the show, so it is so lovely to be able to see what I missed!!!

Thank you Jane, and I sincerely hope that you are soon feeling on top form.

big hugs, :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Wow Jane, you poor little thing.  We were chatting for ages after the show and all relaxed weren't we!!  I am sorry that this happened after such a lovely day too, and I can imagine how worried poor Sarah was.  (I bet the road map went out the window!!).

I hope you are soon feeling better and can get your hernia sorted out.  Please just relax and look after yourself.  Don't go panicking about the photos either, just relax!!!  I am sure everyone will be happy to wait for a few days or however long it takes to get you back to "Jane"!

Take care.  Sending lots of hugs, and a hug for Sarah too!

Hi everyone,

thank you so much for your lovely comments!  My little Robinson is now safely in the arms of "Peterbear" and living very happily in Belgium with a host of other playmates!

Hi Everyone,  

I thought I would introduce you all to my new bear Robinson, an armful of heavy 22" bear, who is destined for Hugglets!  He is made from dense ivory and half grey-tipped mohair, with cranberry/burgundy-ish coloured paw and foot pads.

I have just added some more bears to my Hugglets Preview page, sorry the written details are not there at the moment, am not finding the hours to sit and write them!!  

I'm getting REEEEEEEEAAAAAAAALLLLLYYYY nervous now!!!

Hugs

Marilyn

Dear Jane,

You just relax now and have a wonderful day.  (relax???  with Hugglets on the horizon!!!  No chance!!!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!! :bday:  :bday:  :bday:  :cake:  :cake:  :cake:  :bday:  :bday:  :bday:

... and a bunch of flowers for you!

Hi Paula,

Mabel is such a lovely bear!  I love the floral paws and pads.

And knowing you Paula, I think the answer is "Yes", you could probably squeeze another three bears in by the weekend!!!!!

Have a wonderful day on Sunday!

Hugs

Marilyn

Hello Lynne,

Your new creations are wonderful!  

Look forward to seeing you on Sunday!

Hi there!
Where does the time go????  I intended not to be panicking for Hugglets this time, but it looks like that plan has been knocked for six!!!!

Anyway, I do have a few bears ready but won't be taking so many this time.  So I thought I would pop my little Eleanora on here to say "Hello" to you all.  She is around the 22 inch mark and quite an armful!

Hope everyone has a marvellous day at Hugglets!

Hugs

Oh Michelle,  That is one of the most beautiful things I have ever read.  I have tears streaming down my face even now.  

I am so sorry to hear about Abbey, but it would seem that everything is fine now and she is no longer suffering, as per the wonderful letter you received.

There are some truly outstanding beautiful people in this little world of ours and I am sure that the letter will mean so much to Meredith and indeed all your family for ever.  Something never to be forgotten.

Thank you for posting this - As I was reading it, I could imagine you sitting there with your daughter while you both wrote the letter, and then posting it.  A very magical moment for both of you.  Even more magical to receive a reply!

Must get some tissues ......

Big hugs to you and little Meredith. :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

I'm almost lost for words!!!!!!!!! My mouth was literally watering looking at such gorgeous delights!!  You are fantastic!!! I can imagine your photographs in an excellent cook book, along with the wonderful recipes of course!  (such a shame I am allergic to chocolate though!!!!!!)  I can imagine the customers in the cafe waiting very impatiently for a slice or two of your magnificent cooking!

Hi Cathy,

Oooh, this has got me excited toooooooo!  I have often heard about your featherweights and have just popped onto your ebay listing and when I saw the little machine, my jaw dropped!!!!    I've got one and didn't realise!!!   :crackup:  :crackup:     I looked at your wonderful photos and thought "that looks familiar" and realised that it was virtually the same as my Mum's old sewing machine which I used when I was a little girl and learnt all my sewing on!!!  It's a beautiful little machine.  So I hurriedly got the machine out and ooooooh, the wonderful smell from the machine in its case brought back a flood of lovely memories from when I was very young and used to sit and watch my Mum sewing away.   

This little machine is a 222K I think (I've already popped it back in its case) and "discovering" this has made my day.  I looked at your photos and thought what a wonderful little machine it was and it took a few seconds for the penny to drop!!!  I'm like Nancy, have a computerised machine but they're not as good as the old ones!  All the attachments for this machine work like a dream and can do some pretty clever stuff!

Wow, I've a big smile on my face now!      Good luck with the listing and some lucky person is going to be extremely happy with their new machine.  I can see why you are crazy about them Cathy.  Shame you can't ship them to England!!!!

Hugs,

Marilyn  

Hi Susan,

I am pleased to hear you are coming over to England for Hugglets, please pop up and see me in Hall 4 on stand 123 if you get the chance!!

Are you going to visit Rochester while you are over??

Have a safe journey over and look forward to meeting up with you!

I think things have gone a little twisted here with two answers to orangutan, so I will go with the first reply to it which was
Bubble-Ups reply and use the new word from there.  Is that okay?
