Exquisite Bear

Following on from the wordless post of Keith's Cardi, just after his death,I asked my pal Helen at the museum if she could cut it up and make a photo frame for me. She did, and went one giant step further, and also made this bear. He has cardigan buttons for eyes and fastening his joints, plus a piece of button band was added down the front to give the impression he is now wearing the cardi. The head swivels, seemingly giving many different expressions. There is also a little tag with "K" on it. The bear is now sat on Keith's favourite chair, and makes me smile every time I see it.
