    Sorry, I posted this in the wrong place...

    I told my younger DD that I was going to make myself a faux fur coat. She sent me a picture of one she thought I might "like".
    I DO NOT THINK SO! See below-

    The fur actually glows in the dark! NOT!

    NEAT!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Okay, maybe not so much as a coat, but wouldn't glow-in-the-dark teddy bears be a fun idea? It could make bedtime (and the dark!) seem less skeery for little kids. :)

    Try googling "glow in the dark faux fur"? If you find it, and make teddy bears, etc., be careful how the eyes look or you could give the poor kid nightmares!

    I think that would make even the skinniest girl look like a giant lightning bug. However, I did find some white glow in the dark cotton in the Fairy Frost line that I'm using in GS, and 2 GGD quilts to make "magic Grandma quilts" for them.
