    Absolutely stunning! What did you use as your fusible? And how did you quilt it? Did you satin stitch around each of the edges??? I have some patterns but have no idea what to do once everything is fused down. Thanks!! Hope mine turn out half as life like.

    I used a light weight heat and bond, after I put on all the layers of fabrics, and pressed, I put the first layer of batting with a thin fabric behind it. Using invisible thread I machine quilted the whole bear, I used a very sporatic hair type of pattern over all the edges of the fur. I then put the second layer of batting and backing on, and machine quilted again around the bear's head, ears, eyes and nose to make them pop more.
