Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

I was hoping this would make a small differencs, just so she knows people care about her well being.

My older brother is one of those people that it doesn't matter what you say to him he will just say sorry to shut you up and then brush it off and go on his way. I can not be bothered talking to him right now, I don't even know what to say.  It made me very emotional and he knows already how much I put into that. I hope he does feel guilty! but he has not even tried to contact me to appologise or anything. 

I would also like to sign up.

I hope she wins!!!

I'm using the dinning room table, my spare room needs a clean out. I've been trying to get on to it for sometime now lol, maybe this weekend. lol

I made the elephant for my Aunt because she has been very unwell lately, she has had two heart attacks in 12 months and has an unstable Angina;  She is Diabetic, over weight and a heavy smoker which is very bad for her situation. She has tried to give up smoking but is having trouble due to all the stress she has in her life at the moment.

The card I made for her said You're Appreciated! just to let her know that I care.

Its still a secret so I will make another a take it myself or post it directly to her.

he left it on the deck outside his bedroom where they have 5 dogs. He could have left it with my stepmother in the house but he is a nit wit.    he doesn't think about these sorts of things.

I dog sat for him for over a month reccently, his dog is destructive. we just had our house renovated and the dog made ruins of the back end of the house, chewed the architraves off the wall, pulled the boards off the back of the house, broke the fence.

When my brother was living close by i still had some of my possesions stored at my dads, old stuffed animls, ones i have had since I was very young and I found them in the back yard. I managed to rescue one.
My borther is careless and I can not be bothered arguing with him, so i'm just leaving it and will not trust him with a task like this ever again.

Thank you for all your support I knew you all would understand my pain. 

what a character.    he is great.

he is beautiful, the butterfly has emerged. well done!

Hello All

I recently made a Trumpet (elephant) and Wabito (Rabbit) designed by Jenny Lee from Jenny Loves Benny. I have been a big fan of her work for some time now.

My aunty has been very ill lately so for the last couple of weeks I set aside my own creations and made her a Trumpet (its was a surprise). Her favourite colour was green so I ordered in some green sparse mohair just for this particular creation. I put all my spare time into this, sometimes staying up until midnight knowing I will be working 8.30am - 5.00pm, When I finally finished the little guy I was so proud of it, I was starting to feel reluctant to send him away lol but I knew he was going to a great home.

Because my aunty lives in another state I was going to send it to my younger brother and get him to deliver it. Just my luck my older brother came over for the weekend and so I sent it back with him and My younger brother was to collect it. I have been really excited to hear of the emotions when it would be received. I have waited patiently all week, I got a call from younger brother this morning, he had gone to pick it up. and to my dismay my older brothers dog had destroyed it.     

Now I need to make a new one, but that is not the point. It made me upset to know that I put all my hard work into making something special and he just left it lying around for his dog to destroy. That no one else seems to appreciate what I did.

I'm lucky my partner understands the work I put into him and was here to console me. I'm deeply hurt and sad, it tears my heart apart knowing what my poor trumpet went through.

I also made a wabito for my cousins birthday, going to the same place, he survived, at least someone will be happy.     

he needs a fast car with the window rolled down he he 

I agree, this would look fantastic and suit the style you are going for I think..

Aww He is so amazing. I can see all the hard work in there.

My partner is a web developer so I get all mine free. lol
its not up and running yet because I'm new to designing but it will be up and running very shortly.

he is beautiful.

Wow what a beautiful bear

legs sewn ready for stuffing and body sewn ready for stuffing, now just need to design some arms lol.

I wish I could have one. My cats would not be too impressed

love your work!!!  

Congrats, that must be an amazing feeling.  :clap:

I saw this when I was doing some research and thought you all might enjoy this. Sorry Tami Not trying to steal your animal of the day pics.     

LOVE IT!

Thank you all, you are all so kind. Their will be pics very shortly, almost done!!!
Still have to figure out how to get the best picture too lol.

Hi All

I don't usually say much on the boards, I'm usually floating in the back ground. I've decided to step up and say, "hello again." I am almost finished my first bear design, I am very proud so far with what I have come up with. I'm hopping soon I will be able to share him with you all. Just bear with me a little longer.

I have been working consistently on my bears and sewing for the last couple of months, I have learned so much and some of it is thanks to all of you and your posts. Some of the work people come up with gives me inspiration to aspire to.

I look forward to becoming a more regular poster.

Thank you all

Sherroy
