For artists and collectors sponsored by Intercal...your mohair supplier and Johnna's Mohair Store
Teddy Bear & Friends will accept entries for the 2014 Teddy Bear of the Year (TOBY) competition through next Monday - Dec. 23, 2014!
If you're an artist and haven't yet entered one of your teddy bears or friends in our 2014 competition, this is your last chance!
Photos of all the entries are reviewed by an esteemed panel of judges, who evaluate each submission on overall aesthetic appeal, excellence in concept, design, and execution, and quality of material and workmanship; the highest-scoring creations in each category receive the TOBY Industry's Choice Awards and become the nominees for that year's TOBY Public's Choice Awards. Teddy Bear & Friends readers then vote for their favorite nominee in each category, and pick the TOBY Artist of the Year from among the nominees' creators, to determine the Public's Choice winners.
