I used a light weight heat and bond, after I put on all the layers of fabrics, and pressed, I put the first layer of batting with a thin fabric behind it. Using invisible thread I machine quilted the whole bear, I used a very sporatic hair type of pattern over all the edges of the fur. I then put the second layer of batting and backing on, and machine quilted again around the bear's head, ears, eyes and nose to make them pop more.
