I thought I would start this new link for us to post our photos in as our bears arrive.  Mine came on Friday and it is absolutely The most gorgeous bear EVER.  A million thanks to Olga who has bundles of talent.  I haven't taken any photos yet but I will and then I can share the most gorgeous bear EVER with you all.

Our computer was out of order and I've learned the news just now. I'm very glad that the bear got into his new home and I'm also glad that you liked it.

I am still waiting to take a photo.  I always seem to get home after dark and I want to take the photo outdoors to show this beautiful bear off.  Tomorrow is a public holiday (no work yeah) so I will get it done then.

I have just finished mine for Olga and this is where I start getting nervous.  I worry about the standard although for me I am very happy with the bear and it is one of my first ever designs ( I have designed a mini before and maybe one other) but this one must have had the summer flower power gods looking over me!

My partner and I have swapped, the bears are in the mail traveling across the ocean.  I am so nervous ( They have been sent no insurance) and excited, to see my new little fellow, and for my partner to meet hers.  It has been so far a great fun experience.  I would love to do it again

My swap partner has received her bear so I am posting a photo of him and his little friend that travelled all the way to the USA.I have been making bears for over 4 years now and have never got around to making a bear with a little friend so I decided this was a good time to try.The bear Freddie is 5.75 inches and the little elephant Floss is around 3.5 inches.This swap has been great fun and I have really enjoyed participating.My partner and I have had great fun exchanging e mails.My swap bear is on his way so I hope to see him soon and know that I will love him.

I can not thank Laurie enough for my TWO terrific new friends.  I love them both and feel very privileged to have two of Laurie's creations.  Now hopefully her new friend will get to his home soon.

I was actually the lucky person to get two bears today.  Medlyn, aka bearyfun and I had our own swap.  We traded fabric for bear.  I certainly got the better end of this swap. 
     Many of you may know Medlyn she is a twelve year old aspiring artist that frequently posts on Teddy Talk.   She has a hard time resizing her pictures, so her actual bears are never seen here.  I have taken some pictures. 
    I have named my new friend Chen (after Medlyn)  I love him!  Made of mohair, fully jointed, just 6" tall.  Medlyn has designed and has sewn him by hand.  She even has a very nice website where she shows and sells her bears and animals.  He is absolutely adorable, and I am thrilled to have him,

thank you Medlyn,
  Joanne
