These are the bears I made during our summer sail to France.
The three large bears at the back are faux fur, bought again in Brighton, I suspect the end of the bolt of fabric I bought last year. The blue bows are child friendly and red one is less so.
The bows on the others bare no significance, as they are all unsuitable for small children.
I had ordered three shades of Mohair fabric prior to departure, Cinnamon, Ice Grey and Cream.
The Cinnamon and Ice Grey had a longer pile and worked best on the medium sized bears (second row).
The cream worked well on small bears as the pile was very short (front row).
I tried a tiny bear with the cream fabric (centre front), he was very hard to make and has a startled look.
They are still taking me at least 6-8 hours to make.
