Arthur  and  Robinson

Firstly Robinson

I was so pleased to find this piece of cream vintage velvet even though there is only enough to make a few bears from it. Robinson  is a little gentle sweetheart. He is approximately 3 1/2" (9 1/2cm)tall and is fully cotterpin jointed. He has black glass eyes and a sparsely embroidered black nose. He has a saggy tummy filled with steel shot and the rest of him is filled with kapok. I have hand shaded, and waxed him and added black stitching to give him a well loved look.

These 2 pictures are of the same bear just taken in different lights- I think the first one is maybe more accurate.

Arthur  is 3  1/4" approximately and evolved today as I went along- chopping and changing bits of his body !!

He is made from a blonde sparse mohair with a sandy backing. He has black glass eyes and an embroidered waxed nose. He is a centre seam bear with short legs and his body sags a little from being part filled with steel shot. The rest of him is stuffed with kapok.  I have hand shaded his head and paws to give him a well loved look. He is fully cotter pin jointed and
