Yes, I actually used velvet for the entire bear as her "fur." I found it a bit harder to work with than fur but it did show me where I still need to tweek my pattern.
If you would like to know more about her she is listed on my blog at: http://www.bequestbears.net/2010/09/winifred.html
Thanks for looking!

Great vintage look!
In the back of my mind, a velvet bear has been lurking, but I keep putting it off because I know how difficult it will be to make.
So kudos on your courage. This bear is a real charmer! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Nice old-fashioned looking bear
Thanks everyone!
Becky, you better give it a try anyway. If you are anything like me that idea will keep lurking until you do :lol:
