Ray's Bear Rug is finished!
« on: September 22, 2009, 04:58:45 PM »
Just finished him up last night.  For September this bear had a really nice coat.  Looked up the story for his hunt.  Here is a link.

That is one fine looking rug Michelle. I have said this before but I'll say it again, I really like the ragged edge that you put on the blanket. I've never seen it done that way and I really believe it sets off the bear's appearance.
