Honey Pot BearsHi I mostly get my synthetic fur and other piles from Stephanie at Sassy Fabrics. But I want to do a black/white panda or a black/cream panda 4 1/2" - 5" can anyone help?

Posts: 186Hi Mandie,
A couple of weeks ago I received 10 wonderful synthetic fur samples from
http://www.imstuffedfur.com/
Their prices are good and they have a very large selection of both short and long pile fur to choose from. 
You can email Beverly and tell her what you are looking for and she will send you samples. They have much more than what you can see on the website.
Happy fur-hunting 
Honey Pot BearsFabby dabby thank you Tina

Try these guys: they sell Tissavel and their other brand faux is lovely too: when I ordered a few swatches they sent me loads!
Honey Pot BearsHi Chloe, it all looks a tad long for miniture bears, I will phone them today to ask the lengths I am only looking for 10mm which is a short pile. But thank you for giving me the link. Hugs Mandie
Their moleskin is about that length i think, Mandie It's ever so dense though, so prepare to have to do a lot of trimming and using extra strong thread! I think it would be worth it, my sample pieces were ever so silky...
Their moleskin is amazing....it is 10mm...very dense though..I agree
Posts: 186I found some long pile fur for minis here:

It doesn't look long pile to me - but I don't make minis so maybe it will look long pile on a small bear.

I just had a look at the fauxthrow-site...WOW....great looking fabrics. Have you tried ordering fur from them (except the swatches I mean)? I looked at their FAQ-site and it seems they don't cut fatquarters. You would have to order a lap/knee-size piece (1 x 1.5 meter) to have enough for a medium sized bear as far as I can see. Do you know if they cut fatquarters?
Does the fur have much stretch?
The fur looks so soft and silky...I think I have to order some swatches
Thanks for posting the link
