IMG_1186.jpgIMG_1197.jpgHi Guys!

I thought you might like to see my latest bear I have created from a genuine 90 year old piece of mohair, which I acquired from Germany in immaculate condition until I put my hands to it :crackup:  :crackup:

If you would like to see more pictures of Ernest please take a peep at my blog for more pics and information.
Hugs to you ALL!! bear_wub

Lol, that poor German that had looked after it for so many years in tact!  It did make a lovely bear though
