I'm trying to find a Black Bow Tie for a 12" bear. I have a lovely top hat but I'm missing the tie!
Help please!

I normally make my own- just taking a strip of fabric the width I need, folding it in half. Then taking another small strip for the middle bit and sewing that around the centre ,pulling it in slightly to make the sides a bit more pronounced. The join of the side pieces is in the middle and this is covered by the centre piece so now joins are visible- hope you understand what I mean

PottersHouse BearsIt may be fairly easy to find one in the baby department of stores right now. Everyone is putting out the fancy Easter outfits.
Back Road BearsI find mine in antique and thrift shops. Craft stores sometime have them in with their outfits for dolls and Millie had a great suggestion. I agree with Lynette that it can be rather easy to make your own with a little patience!
Thanks for the suggestions. I will be out and about today and will check in the baby dept and the thrift shop.
As for making one - this may sound funny - but I don't sew!!! I mean like clothes and stuff. I can only sew bears because is just a few stitches and I have never used a sewing machine with any success!!! I guess you could call me sewing challenged!!!
