"Mend it, Grandma!"

And now the other grand-daughter wants me to mend her big brother's teddy.  It's all of 21 years old and I mended it when he was a baby and had sucked the paws off it.  It's more a candidate for The Repair Shop now, but nope, coming to granny.

After!A

I gave him a bath, used the same chenille as on the Honey Bun in previous post, very tightly knit on the flatbed, to make new ends for the paws, repaired and re-embroidered his nose and gave him a jolly good feed of EN71 stuffing.  

 

The grand-daughter was impressed, and I got a lovely smiley photo of her and bear.
