Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

I'm a bit confused when I read through the Bearpile sign up page. The page asks for methods of payment - visa, american express, etc - but doesn't ask for any details about them. It then asks for a password below. Is the password for the site or payment? Where do i put in the payment details? I don't want to randomly press submit in case I mess it all up!

I've had a Folksy account before and not really been pleased with the way it worked and I just want to check before I spend money out, is Bearpile the best way to go?!

Thank you 

Gorgeous! Such a beautiful expression

Such an adorable face 

Thank you for the kind comments 
I'm itching to make another, but i'm just giving my fingers a rest for a couple of days - sore fingers, and I cant get on with a thimble!

Here are my two new creations "Poppy" and "Stanley" both stand 6" tall

Hope you like  xx

Here are my photos for the second time, as I had it kindly pointed out by my daughter, the first set were out of focus! My reply: "I'm a sewer not a photographer! lol" Now I've employed my husband!

So... here is "Bertie" my 6" bear made from vintage velvet with a cute, handmade nose!

Adorable! The eyes say, 'come cuddle me'

Can't thank you enough for your help and advice - invaluable!
I managed to find a 1/4"and 1/8" by Jetton on Amazon, so ordered a small amount to try it.
Watch this space I could end up with a furry alien rather than a bear lol

Thank you so much for your help 
I will investigate a little more online and look up Doll Artistique so thank you for the suggestion.
I just cant get over how much they charge for the stuff, although I do admit it's a very clever idea.

btw you make such cuties

Hello everyone!

I just want to ask for a little bit of advice: I've been investigating armatures in bears and am having real difficulty in choosing the best one. Locline crops up a lot but is really hard to get hold of in the UK and, when you do find a distributor, you need to sell a kidney for a tiny amount!  I've managed to find some which is 1/2" thick - do you guys think it might be too big for the spine of a 12" bear?

Bear hugs,

Helen 

Wow! What an amazing bear, with such an adorable face :)
Love her!

Beautiful! I love the colours you have used

Love him so cute!
