This is Pudgy a 14 inch round and delightful bear. I decided I wanted a fat chubby little bear so I began drawing out some ideas and this is what I came up with, I then found some cotton quilting fabric and thought it would be perfect for this bear.
I cut the bear out and stained the fabric with instant coffee, to seal the staining in I dried the fabric in the oven at a very low temp. The reason I do this its seals the staining but it also gives the fabric a wonderful coffee smell that stays with the bear.
I then sewed up the bear leaving a seam open in the back for filling the bear with fiber fill. When I stuffed the bear I only lightly stuffed him to give the chubby look. Another reason for stuffing him lightly was to allow some bend in the bears legs and arms.
I wanted to give him the look of being old and mistreated so he is missing one button eye and his nose and missing eye are done in cotton black embroidery floss. Lastly I added a bow round his neck for a bit of country look. Pudgy has a bit of an old stained quilted bear.
