Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Christamas Eve I will go to midnight mass and then home to bed, up early and hubby and I exchange our gifts ...Then I ring my Dad and Brothers, off to my daughters for the day with the grandchildren we have breakfast with them and then exchange our gifts..... then the rest of the family arrive we have a cold lunch but eat too much and drink too much ........ but I love Christmas it is great to be with friends and family.....

Well done ..... it is a great bear

I use direct deposit and it works well I have used it to put money into an account in England as well as in Australia...... no problems so far

Daphne, I echo your sentiments... I have only been on here for a few weeks and in that short time you have all become a big part of my life.... I have learnt alot on here and I find it amazing that so many give so freely..... thank you one and all for your wonderful inspiratation I  felt I was in a rut with the bears but I really feel inspired to try diffrent techniques, and thank you for your wonderful company.

Bonnie I can't believe I was ther first usually I'm on the end of the line, this is wonderful, I will pay any extra's involved of course  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Dear Bonnie, I would love to get TBR but I don't know if they would deliever to Australia. What a wonderful jester, I really would understand if you would rather it went to someone in USA ...

That is so good Judi thank you .........

I use woven tags that I stitch into the back seam above where I leave the opening to stuff....

This is what Christmas looks like at our place

Thanks Laura, I will check it out to see if I can get them here

It is great to see your work in a magazine. These are two bears I did for a magazine, they both are the same pattern. I used diffrent mohair and facial features to show the diffrence you can get. I have had to place one pic on top of the other as I couldn't get the whole pages to scan. This is Lord Charles and Lady Gwendoline

I don't think I have heard of them here in Australia ...... is Sharpies the brand name?

Chrissie they are wonderful pics .... I went to Disneyworld 18yrs ago and I loved it mind I couldn't go on many rides because of my back .... but I still enjoyed the day
