Hiya Pam! Here is the article about you.
Your work is really good Pam, I really enjoyed reading all about you.

Oh Wonkydoodle, you do make me laugh! The mental images that you painted with your words are so funny.
Trimming the fur from around the disks would be an excellent idea and then you can get the joints nice and tight. also trim the fur along the edge of the area that you are going to ladder stitch closed. Push the fur in the open gap of the ladder stitch area with your needle and this should make a big difference to you being able to close the seams.

Hi, I've read in a few posts that some of you have high blood pressure. My husband has been taking his blood pressure medication for years now and they didn't make a scrap of difference . He still takes them every day but my daughter suggested that he also take a high dose garlic capsule every day to see if that would help. He took the garlic capsules every day and now sixteen weeks later his blood pressure is normal. It may be a coincidence but I do believe that after taking the other tablets for seven years with no change it must be the garlic that has helped him. There is no smell from the garlic capsules and as garlic is so good for us anyway there was no harm in taking it. I feel much happier to know that Phil is healthier now. Try it and give it time to see if it works. I take the same capsulas each day as I feel it will help me too. I don't have high blood pressure but as the stuff is so good I take it anyway.

Judi Your work is fabulous as ever, nice to have you back with us!
TammyI just love 'Honey' The others are really sweet but 'Honey' is definitely my favourite!
Marion I love all four pictures, I really like the dragon, my daughter Sarah wanted me to make her a dragon some years ago, I did and he's huge.

Yep, The dog sure is an ugly one but of course he should be loved. Everyone man or beast deserves love in their lives. The owner , during an interview on TV, said that she tells him he is going into a stud competition when she has entered him in the worlds most ugly dog competition. Oh well that must be a little bit of a moral booster for him...poor baby!
I have been laughing my socks off at the reactions of some of you to dear old Sam. I just think he was made that way especially for the kind owner to pour love onto him.
Jane
Hi, some of you may have seen this dog on TV but I thought I would share this report and image for those who missed seeing dear old Sam.
Sam, a 14-year-old pedigreed Chinese crested, was recently awarded the title of 'World's Ugliest Dog' for the third-straight year.
He is completely hairless covered from head to toe with warts and is also blessed with crooked teeth, extra long nails and a lump in the middle of his chest. His right eye is blurred from cataracts, his left eye is white.
Sam may not look like a king, but he's certainly treated like one. He eats gourmet meals and drinks only bottled water.
What a special pooch he really is! How could we all not give him a big hug....ummmmmmmmmmmm!

Hi Shantell...boy this sound like an interesting project, very time consuming but I bet it will be wonderful when it is finished. Please share a picture when it is ready.
Jane.
Hi Julia, Your bears are really great. Well done! As for your English it is just fine, I am English and I can't speak hardly any Russian so I think you are very clever to manage so well.
Добро пожаловать в Teddy Talk, я доволен встретить Вас. (I hope you can understand, sorry for the mistakes)

As a child I was always to be found in the garden play house with a pencil in my hand and drawing until the cows came home. I would draw on every spare bit of paper, even in the side columns of the newspaper. I can only remember getting into deep trouble once and that was when I drew naked angels on the paper lining of my Gran's underwear drawer. She was disgusted at the drawings and said I was a naughty little girl until I showed her that I had copied the pictures from a book of bible stories. I got a slap on the back of my hand and was made to go to Sunday school and apologize to the Reverend who found it all rather amusing.
Oh yes! How could I forget! Whilst at high school I was asked to paint the scenery for a school play and when it was lunch time I put down my brushes and went for lunch, ten minutes into lunch time I was called to the headmaster's office where I saw the deputy headmaster standing looking at me as if he could just burst. He was covered in thick green paint. Whoops! I had left a tin of paint at the top of the ladder which I had been using and when I left for lunch the deputy headmaster had folded up the ladder to move it out of the way. the rest I will let you work out for yourselves. I got detention for two week...oh yes, during the two weeks I spent my detention time painting the much needed scenery. Go figure!
Jane
Great photos Wanda. I would love to go to the TBAI show one day. Quite a journey from here though!

Hi Chris...he is wonderful. I love your work but this one is really special. I will come over and say Hi at the Hugglets show in three weeks time.
Jane
These bears are really cute. You show me a perfect human...nobody is perfect so why should bears be perfect!
Jane.
Oh, Wonkydoodle she's so cute! I love her and think that you are being an itsy, witsy bit hard on the beautiful girl. Please don't hide her away she can't even call for help.....hint......hint......sit her somewhere where she can feel loved and when you feel you can, give her a gorgeous smile. :)
Jane
Hiya Wonkydoodle, I just love Dottikins, what a great expression...looks like that face could tell a hundred tales!
Marie ooooooooooow Yummy, yummy, yummy what great chocolate you have you lucky girl. I'm not a chocaholic but if my daughter Sarah saw that chocolate she would be drooling.
Jane
Just to let you all know that I have just bought the September issue of UK's Teddy Bear Scene magazine and
our Danni has her cute bear 'Bernard' on page nine for the world to see. He really is a cutie.
Well done Danni! :):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

Oh! Very cute. I can see why he soon found a new home Shantell. I admire all you ladies that can make little bears.
