I am so excited!  I just found out that my needle felted “Olivia & Oliver – Luv Bug Romance” has been selected to receive a Golden Teddy Award nomination in the Needle Felted category! This is my first GTA nomination!

I probably should keep it to myself but Teddy Bear Review Magazine surprised me with the annual  "Theodore Society" award at Saturday night's EXPO banquet in DC. It is for the "Dedication and Preservation" of the Teddy Bear!
