P1010812tt.JPGI've just posted Barley on my website.

He's a hefty fellow, 16" tall, made from an oatmeal-colored kid mohair with a darker brown backing. I've used a center-seam head design for vintage appeal. Barley is securely jointed and has wired arms for gentle posing.

Barley also has big, "beary" front paws with dark brown short-pile-mohair paw pads, and he is stuffed with sheep's wool and polyfill and weighted with glass beads. He is outfitted with a soft tilt growler and a hand-made (and removable) bow-tie that complements his coloring.

I hope you like him!

Barley is one handsome lad! His bow tie looks wonderful against his mohair color!

Really love Barley.  His fur color with the brown backing is beautiful. And I love his center seam head.  He is really nostalgic looking, and I love that traditional style.

I'm very happy with the way this bear turned out, and it was hard not to get too attached as I was working on him.  bear_grin
