Great photos, Lisa (except for that second one of me-not very lady like, huh?) Thanks for taking the time to share them.
Great party, Tami! :clap: I really enjoyed myself. :dance: Traveling alone to the shows, it was really special to be with a group of fun-loving critter-lovers like me. I felt like a bandit taking home all those wonderful prizes from both parties. :redface: Thanks to all those generous people who donated them and to the "panel" who chose me for the fuzzy slipper prize. 
For those not there, it is a small pink fuzzy slipper with a very cute wobble head bear with pink night cap on wonderfully created by Tami. I loved the shopping challenge in putting together the beary soft outfit. What a nice variety of food and drinks and all so yummy. Shane, I enjoyed helping you celebrate your birthday. :bday: :cake: It was a great way to end a very fun weekend. Brenda the collector
q.D.paToOtieSBrenda,
It was great meeting you and so nice seeing a collector who obviously has a lot of love for Teddy Bears. I hope to run into you in the future at another show (just not in PJs and slippers!!! LOL!).
Hugs,
Lisa
Jare Hares & BearsI know that I had a nice time. Tami did a wonderful job organizing the event. It is always nice to see everyone in person. I am looking forward to doing something like this again at other shows...
Posts: 1Hi, I am the mystery woman in the turquoise teddy sweater...Donna L Parker. I meant to connect back with you but my Mom suffered a stroke the next day and all this past week has been a blurr. I wanted to thank you all for the fun night. It was an honor to me to meet so many Teddy Bear Artist Superstars there. I have purchased bears from several of you there, in the past and it was nice to talk to you on a one to one basis. I especially enjoyed talking to Bev White, she is a kook-a-la! We had fun.....
Again , thank you for inviting people who are not on the "inside " track of artist bears. I am a collector, but I also have designed my own bear and I illustrate bears for giftware companies, Hallmark and other greeting card companies. I was nominated for A Golden Teddy Award back in 1997, but did not win, and I have since been more involved in illustration that the sewing. Lenox is selling one my figurines for Christmas, item #774357H, if you want to see what I do. I am very happy that the sculpt came out like my drawing. That does not always happen! Anyways, Hello to you all and thanks again for the fun night. I hope to meet with you again at the Spring show, and hopefully take a face sculpting class this time.
