OK, I'm in a bind here.... I'm hoping one of you can help me!

I need some pink mohair and I need it last week!  bear_sad

I'll be making a 10-12" bear so need something with a 3/4" pile or shorter. I'd like a medium to dense pile and would prefer it not be straight. Trying not to be TOO fussy here! bear_ermm

Anyone got some I could buy from them immediately? I'll pay with PayPal and would love it if you could ship Priority Mail this weekend. I have to have this bear done next week. bear_wacko  My regular supplier is closed until Monday... by the time they ship something it'll be too late.

Thank you for checking your stash and your willingness to share!

Daphne, I can't offer any pink mohair, but do you have something light that you could dye ??? 

Good luck, I hope you get what you need.

I'd thought of dying too but I have to be honest.... I have tried that ONCE and made such a mess! I don't have the patience to figure it out. It's like doing a science experiment and I hate science!!! It's a very good idea though Tammy and would be a good solution! Thank you! :hug:

I have pink matted KM16 from Schulte, but not sure if that's the look you're going for.  Let me know if so!

Kelly - Can I come to your house and play in your stash???? When I was looking for movie bunny fabric you came to the rescue with the most gigantic selection of brown synthetics!! Now pink mohair!!! I can just imagine the miniature warehouse of fur you and your mom have going! bear_laugh Alas, although KM16 is one of my absolute favorites, it's not right for this project. Thank you, though!

Shantell - I'll email ya! You've got exactly what I need!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! :dance:  :dance:

Daphne,
I have G48 color 5561 1/2 yard.  You can have as much as you need.  Only problem is it is straight.

That made me ROFL!  We have supplies stacked in bins in the basement, and I have been known to say to my mother "I'm going to the warehouse, do you want anything?"
