Hi! I’m also Laura, but friends and family have been calling me Lolly since my early teens. (which sounds a bit ridiculous now that I’m in my 40’s!) 🙂
I’m from Montreal, Canada (brrr!) I share my home with my hubby of 18 years (and counting!), a crotchety 15-yr old Ragdoll cat named Smudge, and an 8 yr. old American Cocker named Wiki, a puppy mill rescue we adopted last summer.
I have been drawing, painting, sculpting, and building ‘stuff’ as long as I can remember, but have only been making bears since 2012. I’ve always loved teddy bears, and while on 3-month post-op medical leave, I decided to learn all I could about bear making. After much reading (especially from Teddy Talk), trial and error, not to mention band-aids, well as they say, the rest is history! 🙂
Thank you so much for making these classes, patterns, and most of all, the forums available to us! I look forward to losing myself in them all.
Much health and happiness to you and yours for the coming New Year!
Lolly
