Yep, it's still there Nancy!
I just love it..."MEN" can smoke themselves to death, drink their brains out and beat each other sensless and that is "macho". But, if you hug a sweet teddy bear...
Does any one else see anything wrong with this???
We have black bears come through here once in awhile and eat some garden. They won't bother you if you dn't bother them. They are quite docile actually.
Oh she is so elegant! She looks like she could meow at any minute!
Huwi bears, I love your bear! To me he looks like he is saying "Ilove you".
I love toasty! What a cutie...my "take up bear time" is Jasmine.
They really get to your heart don't they?
No picture Jessie!
Gemma, do not worry about someone upsetting you. No matter where you go there are always people who want to make trouble and some don't mean to at all. Just don't bother with bad posts...look on to the good ones. By the way, I love the kitten on your picture. I have always wanted a kitten as long as I can remember but I am allergic to them. Boooooo
I don't think first bears should ever be sold. They are something very special.
Kelly, I love his big wonky nose!
I use Photobucket and it works great!
Gabriele, I can't wait to see pictures of your griffon!
Yes, Jessie, I probably would still love them...very carefully!
I love him! Of course my favorite color is white.
Me too bearlady! The only ones I may have a problem with are the ones with teeth and claws!
Peterbear, I think your first bear looks well loved. That is all a bear asks for...to be loved!
Ira, she sounds beautiful!
Good luck! I would need to see any of these explaniations to be able to repeat them. I guess I am visual. It's really not hard once you figure out how you want to do it. Just practice!
Jennskains , I agree with a lot of others. Facebook and blogs seem to be the thing now and I do not like either one. I will not go on face book and expose my computer to all the virus there plus it seems an awful waste of time to me. TT is not the place it used to be, which is OK but, what bothers me is it is not a "lets be friends" place either. Just show your bears and talk about antiques seems like to me. I like to be "friends" with other bear makers.
I use the document protecters too. I also put a picture of the bear I made with the pattern in and on the back I put a list of materials so I can scan it over and see what I need.
Very sweet...she looks like Vanilla Cafe!
If you are using a very small needle I can't imagine why it should split?
I be sure to make the card fit just inside the seam line and it never moves. If I don't get it inside that seam it will move on me.
I am sighted (with glasses) but, like Jessie, I like huggable teddies. That is my prefrence. Everyone has a preference and that is OK with me, mine is huggable Teddies. I think that once a Teddy is loved he becomes special no matter where he came from.
Well, Jessie, it helps to have eyeballs!
