No wonder those Steiff toys were so expensive
Mohair fabric is $300 a yard!
It also explains why all the women posting to this community http://www.eii2.com/Community/viewtopic.php?t=954&sid=b53429e70425167453707e4593804438 looked so upper-middle-class and smug.
People get way too cute with teddy bears. I suppose that statement is ridiculous. But people take something innately cute as is, then pour a gallon of saccharine over it. ugh. I've read that the flip side of sentimentality is brutality. Could be.
We have fog and frost this morning. At 3am the nearly-full moon shone so strongly in the window that it kept Joe from getting back to sleep after I'd got up to pee.
I finished the little stuffed mouse for the baby last week. It was an evening's worth of work, no more. I'll have to commandeer Mom's sewing machine some time, for stronger stitches. Now I must figure the fabric for the other two toys, and whether to wash it first.
