It's just a wall hanging, about 36" square.

The bear's fur is very jagged. That's a good project to do while watching TV. I started it for a class several months ago, got only part of the nose finished in class, then put it aside thinking I would need a big chunk of time to finish up. When I did start up again, I put the whole thing together in a few hours, added the borders the next day. I do think the quilting will take a while.
