This may be a repeat for those of you who have seen it in the challenge section.  But since I am selling them they are going here also.  Please meet Munds and Winkelman.  Two friends who have enjoyed many, many years in each others company.  They are now listed on ebay.  They are listed with a reserve price I will add that info to my website shortly.

I hope you will stop by their auction to see their story of friendship.  I really enjoyed this challenge, thanks Paula, and Teddy Talk.

Here is their link

Where to begin, Joanne?

The story is so touching, and the artistry in every detail of these two is "the real deal"! ("You are artist," as my best friend's artist mother used to say... to other people:)

I'm another one who doesn't quite understand how you can part with these. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

BTW, the bear's wispy gray flyaway hair on top is priceless! I love the fantastic blanket, too.

Wow, Joanne

What an amazing pair.  I can't even imagine how much work you have put into them.  I don't know how you keep managing to come up with such fabulous critters and creatures...but each one with your unique trademark style.  If I ever manage to become half as good as you, I will be ecstatic!

Hope they find a great home

Regards

Sue

Becky I forgot to answer your question.  I don't know how to explain the mindset,  I am done making them and I let them go.  It is done in my mind. I love them when I am working on them, and then I am done, and my mind goes away from them and on to the next one.   I started selling the things I make when I was in my early 20's,  I am now 49, it has gotten easier.
