Custom Heirloom Teddy Bear for Barbara
(created from her family heirloom fur stole)
Barbara's real fur stole was not a ranch mink, the fur
that I traditional use for my teddies, but this was a much
softer fur yet still one that I knew I could scissor sculpt
to create a sweet face. I adjusted my pattern just a little
and I am so happy that I did because I think that this
teddy's face is just irresistibly charming !!!
Features of this Custom Teddy:
- Hand-stitched vintage real fur (from a brown fur stole)
- paw pads from lining of fur stole
- Glass eyes
- Embroidered, waxed, and sealed nose
- Wire armature in limbs for gentle posing
- 6 joints included a double jointed neck (for a charming head tilt)
- Gently hand painted details
- Stands 10 1/2 inches tall and 8 inches sitting
This teddy is just so sweet that
I took lots of photos ....
