Hello everyone,

I am looking to purchase some scrap furs for a bear project i'm doing. All peices need to be at LEAST 4" square.

I'm looking for, Real fur, Mohair, Alpaca, Synthetic, Blends.
Colours - browns, Yellows, Oranges, Purples, Greens...... Atcually, Any colour!
Piles - Distressed, plush, Short, Long, Matted, stained, Even peices with bald patches or flaws.

So basicly, I'm after any fur pile fabric, Any colour, Any piles.

Depending how much fabric I can get, will determain the size of the bear i'm doing :)

So please everyone, Please sell me your scrap furs, So I can make a wonderfull patch work bear for my partners birthday.

Thank you,

Richy~

Hi Natasha,

That is a good thought. The reason I posted on TT Was because there are allot of bear makings and I was looking for allot of different fur types, length and colours to make a "patchwork" bear for my partner. I was interested in buying small peices that other people couldn't use, Even weird shapes.

Thanks for the post though,

Richy~

Everyone-  I am so impressed with everyone being so helpfull. It really makes me smile.

I though since I wanted to make a patch work bear that I need allot of different styles of fur. Buying all those different styles would sure mount up and I probably wouldn't be able to use as many different fur peices as I'd like.

I also think I may be helping some of you ladies and gents make a few extra bucks, Pounds, euros etc off of those scrap peices you just don't have the heart to throw away.

Thank you all again,

Richy~
