Posts: 2,203My Mother gave me a sewing machine as an early birthday present. I am having a blast playing with it! :dance: Don't be surprsed if you see a new site up and running by this time next year. "Jenny Bean bears and collectibles" There is a story behind the whole " Jenny Bean" thing but that I will save for another post. Happy new year! Stay SAFE! Hugs, Jenn

I'm still thumping away on an old White, but it's tough enough to handle upholsery and sew through leather. But garn, it's ugly!

Posts: 2,203Now for the story.... Once upon a time in a land far, far, away, I am actually quite serious about the far, far , away part (Central America. Panama Canal Zone) there lived a young couple. Now at first the young couple were overjoyed to find out that they would be bringing thier first baby into the world sometime in march the following year! Delight soon turned to shock when after Christmas my mom was bowling in a tourniment when her water broke! Three days later on New years eve @ 11:45 pm I made my grand entrence. (a wwhopping 3 ponds 4 ounces) Hey wheres the party?! I was no bigger than my fathers hand. because of my size Mom called me " Jenny Jelly Bean" Flash forward a few years to my searching for a company name I happened to be looking through an old year book and up pops "hey Jenny Bean" the person who called me this did not know about the nick-name. Hence " Jenny Bean Bears & Collectibles was thought up. Jenn
Past Time BearsWhat a neat, wonderful story!! You were a scrappy, determined little bugger to survive being born nearly 3 months early. Way to go, Jenny Jelly Bean!! :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: And I love how you re-discovered the name looking through your annual.
Ruby Mountain BearsVery Cute Story and wonderful sentiment attached to your Business name. You should use the story on your website/advertisements too. Us teddy bear people are sappy for that stuff.
Anyway What kind of Sewing machine, where's the piccies of it and all the new stuff your making??
