Hi Danni and Shelli and everyone!  I have really missed this place.  The summer is so very busy here right now...even though it is almost gone:(

There are so many bears and other critters that are clawing inside of me to get out that there does not seem to be enough hours in a day anymore...but it sure gives one something to look forward to .....eh?

You guys are great!

Daphne Aug 20, 2005

Tammy -
I'm a little slow here but have to say your bears are adorable!! I'm with you on Nanuq!! What a sweetie!
I can't wait to meet them! Oh, lucky me!!:D

Everyone else's bear look great too!

I really need to do a photo shoot.... I've got quite a few new ones to show you!

Here is my 2005 Holiday Ornament "Moostletoe". He's made of Schulte moss green alpaca with quilter's cotton fabric antlers and an antique brass bell at his neck which you can't see in the picture but adds a bit of weight so he hangs nicely and it has a nice rich sound. I'm having fun going to antique shops and eBay for these bells. They aren't cheap tho'!!! Jeesh! Anyway, he's 4" tall from neck to top of antlers.

He's a Limited Edition of 36 and $25.00 US.

Shari Aug 20, 2005

boulou18pau, Oooh, France!! That is so far away! I'm glad we've got a chance to meet and talk about our bears! :)

Danni, thanks, but I know my English had better days.... when I lived in Tacoma, WA. Now I'm like a dog..understand everything, but don't speak. Some practice maybe would help..;)
I'm not sure about my "cleaverness". My husband says, I'd better go study economics, rather then sew bears!

Jane!!! Your Russian is perfect!! Спасибо. (Thanks). I was studing forum's lessons on bear-making and decided to improve my English as well.:):):)

Winney, I'm pleased indeed to hear from you such words. You are wonderful artist and as you say about other girls very kind person.

Shari, Laura Lynn , Eileen , Tammy , THANK YOU. Your words are very important to me. Make me try whole new ideas!:lol:

Marie_ I speak Japanese a little too. So マリアさんの言葉をきいて、とても嬉しくなりました。Japan, France, Canada all these countries are used to internet-shops..but as for my place... I ordered some stuff from Germany, payed when it was delivered. It took 2 mounth!!!

Deegan is absolutely darling, Lynn.  I love his little blue "outfit" and blankie.  He looks like a little baby boy.
