Louise and Garnet Carrick
You are so right Dilu and Sue Ann.
Garnet and I took Ruth the head of the Elder Advocates (The charity we give to) out for lunch yesterday and I gave her a bear that I had made for her and she cried. She told us she has not cried in 10 years because of the horror stories she sees every day she has had to become hard.
She has been dragged out of nursing homes for causing trouble due to the conditions the elderly are subjected to. She has been arrested for causing a stir over the terrible treatment that the elderly receive in some of these homes. Ruth is 75 years old!
My heart and spirit are lifted each time a baby bear is created. I also feel that same way when I see all of your wonderful creations. We gave Ruth another cheque yesterday and that is what makes us feel good about life in general. We are fortunate indeed. After talking to Ruth I pray for a heartattach before I ever have to enter a home other than my own.

Kelly you are an absolute Doll. Now the first part of next week I will give this a try. I will use cut and paste and I am sure it will work. I am going to be a busy girl. Thank You Darlin!
Hugs Louise
My inspiration is actually call OBSESSION! I eat sleep and breath bears. All my life I have had a love for them and I hate to admit I dream all night long about them. Garnet says they are all I talk about!!!!! (Sorry Dear!!!!)
I have an obsession truly almost to the point of seeking medical attention!!! Like Shelli says in her article in bears and buds, my first concern if the house was on fire would be to get the mohair out ! (Sorry again Dear!!!)
It is true Know of a good phyciatrist
Hugs Louise
Wonderful job Adrian and Anna. Looks like Mom has taught you both well. He is lovely!
Hugs Louise
Sue Ann Reese is adorable. He is lovely with his short mohair and button nose. Great little guy, but from you we expect nothing less than great!!
Hugs Louise
Daph! I had many tears over your story. It is wonderful. We should all appreciate what we can do and that we can share our creations with others. Beautiful story. Should be in a teddy magazine for all to enjoy!
Hugs Louise
Hi guys. Jane and Danni my heart goes out to both of you. Nothing worse than feeling lousy. I love both of your wonderful creatures. Sometimes if one part or more of the body fails you, another picks up the slack. The Mind! You both are very talented and very creative minds and do great work!
As for the number of bears? I try to shoot for 2 a week but usually only manage 1. Garnet, (the old guy) tries to shoot for 1 a month and usually ends up with 1 every 3 months. He is wonderful in helping to design patterns, cutting bears out and running me all over hell and back for supplies. (Gosh.. I'll keep him)
Hugs to all

Shelli, I do not pretend to be experienced with double jointed necks but the diagram is pretty much what we did for Nanug. What we did however was add a disk of mohair at the back of the head and left it half open for stuffing. once the head was stuffed we hand sewed the disk closed and attached it to the double jointed neck which also had circle disks on bothe ends. Do I make any sense?
Let me know and I will try to be clearer.
Hugs Louise
Kim and Shelli, great info. I agree totally about the ending time of an auction as well as being consistant. (Although I do not always head to that) Nanug is on ebay and I am trying my first 10 day auction. I dont know that I would do that again though. Also I totally agree with putting your bears on ebay on a regular basis. At least when your name is fairly new. This is what I have been doing and I look at it as cheap advertising for ones web site.
No I have not had great success on ebay but will keep working at it. I recall a few weeks ago saying I hate ebay but that was because I took the entire process to heart. I have learned that one cannot do that. Good luck everyone.
Hugs Louise and Garnet
I love the networking idea as I mentioned on the other post. Now, I thank each and everyone of you wonderful ladies for putting our link on your web sites. I Want To Do The Same for you. I have tried everything. Help PLEASE! What the heck am I doing wrong? I can get you web address up there but not the name (where you click and it goes to the website) Or banners???
Help I feel like a chump because your links are not on our site yet. Bear with me.
