I'm so glad I stumbled across this board! I've been making bears & dolls for almost 10 years now and am presently making little polymer clay bears (to be listed on ebay after we get back from vacation...), I'm seriously thinking about digging out the mohair again! These boards are so inspiring and I've learned some new things (I thought I knew all there was to know about bear/pattern making but I Don't! bear_happy ). I LOVE bear patternmaking, it's my first love, I'd love to just design and sell patterns (and maybe one offs of the bears). Anyhoo enough of my blabbering, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate everyone on these boards, I feel at home here among other "bear folks". bear_original bear_wub bear_flower

Great to meet you all! bear_original
I'll post pictures as soon as we get back from vacation (we leave Saturday), I have no clue how to do it ...that's what my DH is for... bear_tongue He has to show me how to post pictures on ebay so I'll just translate that knowledge to this board *hopefully* I'm very computer illiterate! bear_sad
