Thanks guys.  I still am totally floored by winning.  Although I think my bear is cute - he's a very ordinary little guy compared to other things that were entered.  I had picked the two bears that I thought would win - one was a big open mouthed polar bear with amazing sculpted mouth etc and the other was my good friends entry who was totally cute - so when I arrived at the show I walked straight past the competition table until my friend accosted me and made me look!  They didn't announce bear of show until Sunday afternoon.  Not sure if you can see the bear among all the bling!

You guys have met him before (as Ginger Kisses) He's sitting in a suitcase and has his Christmas companions and quilt with him.  Terrible photo I'm sorry.  Now I'm trying to decide whether to sell him.  I actually sold him once already, but he was sent back because he wasn't the right colour.

What a wonderful surprise for you Melissa...and all the more sweet because it was unexpected! He's such a sweet little bear!
I think he is destined to stay in your hug after coming back to you once and then proving his worthiness with all those prizes!
Please keep him! :clap:

Well done Melissa, you so deserve it after all your hard work.

Make sure you bring him at Xmas so I can see him in the fur.....oh and you should definately keep him as he obviously came back home for that reason.
