Everett the Panda Bear

OK, I'm going to get past this "hair" thing and post a teddy...


This is Everett, my most recent creation. He is made from this fuzzy fleece-type material that I find at JoAnn's. It's not considered plush, but I find it makes the softest bears. The fibers do tend to get all over the place, but a little tumble in the dryer set at "fluff" takes care of a lot of that.


I airbrushed him to give him his panda features... and I'm pretty pleased with the way he turned out.



He is a love, and with his arms open, he is ready for hugs.



So, teddy hugs to all of you and have a great Saturday. Vicki and Everett

  1. Vicki, Everett is a bundle of cuddly love! His open arms just scream: Come hug me!
    You did a wonderful job on his coloring. And you were so brave to do it on new carpeting!
    A wonderful teddy!
    Hugs,
    Laura

  3. Yes Laura, I was "relieved" to say the least, once the airbrushing session was complete... LOL ... now I'll be braver for the next teddy soul who needs a little shading;

    Everett says "thanks, Lynda, for worrying about me in the dryer; but no worries... only my fur went in the dryer before I was born..ha ha..
