I was just wondering if anyone has heard from Janice Marie of Gresswell Forest bears. I have my bear ready to swap and am dying to send it to her. I have sent her two PM with no reply..hoping nothing is wrong.
Cheers

I'm very happy to say that my gorgeous bear "Rollo" has arrived all the way from the USA. Thankyou so much Becky (Dangerbears). I hope Becky has a good photo of him so you can all see how sweet he is
This is Rollo, a 14" harlequin-type bear made from white and gold kid mohair and dense dark-brown alpaca. I made a neck ruffle from a silk ribbon and some wool pom-poms for his tummy.
I'm so happy that Linda likes him! :hug: :hug: :hug:
Becky
And I really like the pom poms, wool you say, I want a better look at them, they are so good.
Thanks, Joanne! Here's a closer picture. Perhaps pom-pom-making will be my first photo tutorial...?
Becky
Against all odds, Linda's bear and mine were posted on the same day (well, we did plan that) and arrived at their new homes on the same day - remarkable!
I'm totally in love with my new polar-bear friend. Her name is Kari - aboriginal word for a traveler - and I'll let Linda show you how adoooorable she is.
Becky
Wow! It's amazing that they took the same time to arrive. The Gods must have been smiling, and the stars were aligned or something I'm so pleased that you like Kari, Becky. This has been a fun swap, thanks Karon for setting it up
I'll put her photo up just as soon as I can find the lead for the camera Don't know where that's gone! (had a bit of a tidy up the other day and I fear Chris has put it in a "safe place"! Oh dear, it may never see the light of day again!!!!!)
Well I've found the cable, here is a quick snap I took before heading down to the post office the other day.
Sweet sleepy bear
Becky

Both are fabulous, lucky you
