Absolutely stunning! What did you use as your fusible? And how did you quilt it? Did you satin stitch around each of the edges??? I have some patterns but have no idea what to do once everything is fused down. Thanks!! Hope mine turn out half as life like.

Wow!

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.

Neat to meet another quilter from Wyoming!!

Bet your mum loves it, you did a great job. I love bears also :)
