Well, I thought I was finished until I found a note that requested that I use the embroidered name on the lining on the teddy's paw pads ...


obviously the paw pads are too small to use the embroidered name so, as usual, I made a sitting pad using the name to accompany the teddies.

NOW they are finally finished!
