This is "Feazel'' and he's been brewing for over five months.  I've done a totally new design literally from head to toe, even trying a new footpad technique called stencilling.  The result is positively delightful!!  I cannot put this bear down!  He's been constantly in my lap ever since being born.  His cafe au lait muskrat fur is soooo downy soft, and I can't stop playing with those adorable fox ears.  

"Feazel'' has a true heart of gold, so I gave him a real amber heart pendant to reflect that.

"Feazel'' is a real chunky boy, standing 10 3/4'' tall.  He's five way jointed with hardboard locknut discs joints.  He can get into many different poses, and he can stand with some assistance,  but do to his extra pudge, he prefers to sit. I've put him in profile here so you can better see his body contours.  He has a little bit of a hump like the old style bears, an ample tummy, perfect for honey.    And you can also see his adorable fluffy tail here, with fox for the underside. 

As with all my bears, "Feazel'' has been completely handstitched, and is double sewn to last a lifetime of hugs, cuddles and fun.  He's been properly and fully lined.  And he's been stuffed with new polyfil, a hefty pillow of steel shot for that perfect weight, and loads of love. 

I've utilized two different ultrasuedes for his stencilled pawpads.  Its tan ultrasued for the bottom layer, and stencilled creamy white ultrasuede for the top layer.  He also sports a tan ultrasuede nose, with mouth embroidery.  "Feazel'' has handblown German glass eyes, and his face (I kid not) took me three days of extensive handscissoring to achieve. 

"Feazel'' sends hugs out to all!!

"Feazel" is currently on hold.
