Another “has been” to share..

.. with you. Yet, another coat was given to me by my Mom a few months ago to see what I could do with it, if anything. So, this is the before picture…

.. just an old brown coat. The plush, however, is extremely rich and thick.. I had a hard time sewing it on my machine. However, with a little clipping and some fray check and a few hours of my time, please meet Arthur, a 16 inch Alaskan Parka Bear.

Good luck to all of you participating in the Blooming Bear Show  this weekend. I browsed through some of the listings and I, as always, am amazed at the incredible teddy bear talent in our world. 

Hugs from Vicki and the Bears
