~Greetings. The snow and the wind doth blow on this Tuesday morning in Vermont. We had a fresh new layer of snow overnight and now it is softly falling & is swirling about, slamming into the windows on a strong, bitter blustery wind! I shall be stitching the day away by a cozy fire. Wishing you a joy filled day.~

Published...... ♥

Young W.P. Pawlet has been honored with a "Most Wanted" Feature in Teddy Bear & Friends Magazine. He will appear in the upcoming Summer 2011 Antique's Issue.


This is truly such an honor. I have wanted to be a part of this beautiful magazine since I began my bear making journey almost eleven years ago and I am thrilled beyond measure :)

I have a long way to go with my bear making, having not really worked at it full time until just this past year, I have much to learn before I feel I have truly mastered it....so many techniques I want to try & learn and SO many more bears to make before everything looks exactly how I want it to look. But this......this is a step along the way...a wonderful validation & one that I didn't expect to find happening for quite some time and I am so absolutely delighted.

~Thank you Teddy Bear & Friends Magazine~
Fondly, Doreen & Young W.P. :)


20 delightful friends dropped in for a visit:
