Custom teddy and companion puppy

For James
from his beautiful gray mink stole

The original order was just for one teddy (pattern #1) 
but that only used about half of the mink stole
so when James requested a companion for the teddy
I just had to recommend a puppy.
(Actually I designed my puppy pattern originally to be a companion to my teddies)
This is the perfect pair!
Luckily the mink stole that James sent was perfect to create this pair
because I can only create this puppy if the pelts that I have are
thin full pelts with dense hairs ... 
and that is exactly what James sent me to work with.
This was my ideal pelt and it was a pleasure working with it.
I am very pleased with the results and I hope that James will be too.









Features of puppy:
Hand-stitched
Glass eyes
Embroidered, waxed, and sealed nose
Hand-painted details
Stole lining used of inner ears and paw pads
6 joints including a double jointed neck for a charming head tilt
Wire armatured in limbs for gentle posing
7 inches (standing straight up)
5 inches sitting or standing on all fours
