Last week, Kelly Dauterman and I met for lunch and had such a grand time talking teddy bears, supplies, shows, and even wounds. She creates her sweet bears under the name Blondheart. Can't wait to get together again!
And this week, I had lunch with Carolyn Robbins. We had a good time getting to know each other and seeing each other's creations. It was fun to see her little bears and friends in person; I especially liked her duck, Jacques. Her bears are called Warm Heart Bears.
There are other bear makers in the Denver area and one or two in the Rocky Mountains. I would love to meet all of them someday.
I don't have pictures for you of our lunch gatherings, but I'll include a photo of my little white guy (who is not finished yet, but don't feel bad for him--he would be getting into mischief were he finished!):
Little white guy, not quite finished
Sounds like a lot of fun! I love your little white guy peeking out of the teacup!! Hugs, Janice
ReplyDeleteIt was fun. I should have posted about meeting you and Joanne...hey, now there's an idea! Better late than never, right? Glad you like the little white guy. When he's finally finished, it'll be a celebration. :o)
DeleteKeep looking at you mum while she makes you a beautiful body.

Thatnks for encouraging the little white guy. :o)
DeleteI love that you all got to do lunch, poor wee head in a teacup though...
ReplyDeleteWhen are you coming out to Colorado? Would love to have tea with you! But don't go feeling sorry for the little white guy. He has a lot of bigger bears watching out for him, and the girls are always asking me to finish him. He gets plenty of attention. :o)
DeleteI love the pic! We should all three get together next time!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Kelly
Go glad you like the little white guy--Garth took the picture. Yes, we all need to get together. I am thinking of a gathering at my house. Someday I'd like to throw it open to those farther afield, too. It'll be fun!
ReplyDeleteAww, this little bear head in the teacup is too cute! I can't wait to see what it looks like when it is finished - looks like it will be pretty sweet, though! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kay! I'm so glad you like the little white bear. Hopefully I'll soon design and body and limbs for him. All my bears are so patient; that's a good thing, and something I need to aspire to. :o)
DeleteAwwww sooo cute! That little bear sure perfectly snug in that little cup! Now, I want to make my own itsy bitsy teddy bear!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tabby! He sure needs a body. Hopefully soon I'll be able to design and make him one. That would be great--you should make your own little teddy bear! :o)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the best teddy pattern and shape i have seen in ages! Thank you so much for sharing your progress and the finished bear.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
