Hi All
Happy New Year to all TT's
Does anyone know of a supplier for Sassy fur in the US?

Thanks Lyn for the info .Given how expensive it is to get mohair from Germany I checked the Intercal site again and I think I can get what I want from there

Hi Jenny
I have checked their site as well as Edinburgh and the suppliers in Australia, none seem to have the 2" plus length

Hi Everyone
Merry Christmas to all and a happy, healthy and properous 2012
Can anyone tell me where I can purchase the long tan coloured and black mohair that is used to make the Yorkie dogs? I have checked all the suppliers I know and can't seem to find what I am looking for. Any help would be appreciated

I have also made bears from seal. Just be sure you check the nap as it usually runs up from the bottom of the coat which is the opposite to most of the other natural furs. It makes gorgeous bears!!!!

Hi Daphne

Hi Becky
This foot is traditionally used in quilting and IMO would not work for sewing bears

Hi Katy
This doesn't work as the pictures are in their own file and not with all my other pictures Maybe when Daphne returns from her show in New Hampshire which is this weekend she will re-post the tutorial

Gail :doh:  :doh:  :doh:  :doh:

I have the pictures saved of how Daphne ties a bow but can't figure out how to get it to TT- any suggestions? I have tried to copy and paste using select all but that doesn't work Just looking at the pictures will show you how to tie the bow
