Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Super genial Sophie :clap:  :clap:  :clap: Je suis ravie pour toi et te souhaite que du bonheur          

Dear Laura, you where brave to bring up a show :clap: . I guess it's mean lot of work even if you finally had fun :hug:

Wonderfull idea for sure for all of us,particularly for the bigginners. When i started making bears, i had difficulties  to find where to buy mohairs and the kind of mohairs  :hug: wich will suit my projects. With this new future, it's much more easier.

Hi Happy to meet you here. I also like your site with all the bright colors. :hug:

Big hugs from France dear Gladys :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

A really big thanks to you Jane and Paula to share with us this fabulous fair . I wasdhed and washed the photos, but can't get enought. Everybody else took photos? Hurry up Marion, show us yours

I'm so happy for you Carolyn Mans can sometimes be so sweet Did you took pictures? How are people there? Are they communicative and patient with tourist? :hug:

Yes Gemma. It would be nice to meet you and many others TT :hug:

I'm very happy about your comments, really I don't know why but i'm always happy to sew this design, particularly the shaving and the shading process. I will attend the next Alexandra Palace event on october and i hope that these bears will be given some interest

Oh thank you so much :redface:  I'm really glad to have these compliments from you all. Happy bearmaking :hug:

Hi . Here are 2 newest creations from my floppy serie in 2 sizes. :hug:  Irene

Have fun Daphne, even if the sun is not there About the mohair at Shulte, i had an answer, but they just sent me the number of the mohair, not the name, so i'm very sorry to do not be able to help you   :hug: Irene

Love it, love it, love it :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

I agree what Gaby says about the choice. Yes they have many mohairs, but i think that Intercal have more mohairs to choose from and more brands. Claudia, i'm happy to meet you How lucky you are to be near the Factory, even if i'm sure that is dangerous for the purse.

What a sad day of sure. Thank you Dilu to have post the pictures. I didn't know her, but my heart is on pain. All my condolences to her familly

Oh no, i can't read anything on the tag , BUT: i sent an email to Shulte today with the photo attached to the mail to ask for this mohair reference. I also tought that maybe Gaby can contact the lady she knows at Duisburgh. Maybe this lady will accept to go to the factory and send us the reference? Thank you for the wonderfull comments about my bears :hug:

Bobbie had explain thinks very well. I tried to choose the mohairs that's fit my designs, but of course, i would have choose many more if i had more $$$$$$$ Gaby, does she have a website? I already used 2 of my choosen mohairs for 2 biggest Floppy serie. Here are photos. It very nice and fun to read all of your messages. Thank you for your interest. :hug

Daphne, you sure have" the eyes" because this one is stunning . Halas, i didn't yet won lotery, othervise,guess what i would buy the most??? Matilda, i was a good girl belong the year because i didn't bought so much things. So, hubby decided to make me a gift by making this trip to German. They only sell by meter. I was so excited, just like a little girl saying: i want this one, and this one, and this.... There's another room full of wool and syntetic wich i don't use. They also have a furnitures room and magazines. :hug:

Hi Dilu . Your site is really really nice, but i had hard time to read the texts beacause the print seems small. :hug:

Bravo Bonnie :clap:  :clap:  :clap: They are marvellous peace of collection. How do you find your ideas? They are so different, can't choose wich one i prefer

Hi dear all   Here are some photos of the shulte factory in Duisburgh city. It's a long trip from our home,980 kilometers, but i had a very good time there. It's only the outside factory and the inside of the room where they stock the for sale mohairs. Unfortunately, we couldn't saw the inside because they allow visits just for groups who booked a day . that's say, of course it's a dreamland for a normal bearmaker because you can see all kind of mohairs and wool and synthetics fabrics. I also send you a pic of the 13 meters of mohairs that i bought :dance:  :dance: Now, i don't have any excuses to do not work for my next exhibits. Have all a good day,Irene

Tomorrow,i'm going to SHULTE manufacture yeaahhh!!! My hubby think that i was a good girl because i didn't bought much things since the biginning of the year :crackup:  :crackup: that's why he take me to Duisburg in Germany. Isn't that too cool? It's about 980 kms from our home, but we are moving for 8 days. We will also visit a bit of Belgium. I hope to visit the manufacture because i would like to know how they work on mohair and of course i will take photos if they agree to. Have all a good summer, Irene

I use Artist markers bought in an Art-crafts store :hug:

Hi Fran. Marvelous dresses again. I like them all and would have hard time to choose

Oh Daphne, you didn't "lost your hand" since then because he's just beautifull. I'm sure that he's going to please much the customer. :hug:
