Thanks everyone, Dad was a beautiful, gentle man with an absolute love of life and always on the go. He always had time for us and at his funeral, we were overwhelmed with old friends of his telling us how he had been good to them or their children and that they could not remember him ever doing a mean thing to anyone. We have lost him too early but we have many, many wonderful happy memories and due to my Mum and Dad we have a lovely close family. Hugs to you all and smile every day! Cheers Lindaxx
I made my first bear in 1995 and in the same year I began designing my own and formed Lombard Bears Australia. I combined bear making with my 3 jobs for three years and then my (now) hubby and I made the big move out of the city and took on a 7-day a week business...end of bear making for about 9 years! I had just started getting back into bears after having my daughter Elkie, when I saw a felting demo in August 2008 and my mind was off at a million miles an hour and hasn't stopped since. I Love that needle felting allows you to sculpt in fibre! I am loving being back into bear making and boy what a different world it is today compared to when I started...WONDERFUL!!!
