Only a truly evil man would skin their children's teddy bears while they sleep. A good person would get the children to skin their own teddy bears as their initiation into the miniatures hobby, gang-style :)

So far I have found....

Seems like it may work
http://www.abakhan.co.uk/acatalog/Fleece_Fur_Fabric.html


Did not find any but this one was recommended
http://www.fjoelner.dk/

They discuss it here
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=9537.0

and here
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=27039.0


I am looking to do something like this and I want to make sure I have the right "type" of fur
http://www.earlswoodwargamers.co.uk/terraincorner.html

Also I live in the US (when not traveling the world killing peeps) so contact by phone to the recommended store and ordering seems a bit much..

Thank you for your info!

PS I did attempt to find those free range teddies Hammers has hunted but it looks like they are not native to Arizona..

Just go to your local fabric shop, it's better to veiw these thing's by eye I think, and it doesn't matter on the colour just the texture/length of the fur.

I would love to see some pictures/links of the material so I know what I am looking for exactly. Pictures of your finished work would be awesome as well!  Thanks for advanced, the children thank you too...

Every fabric stor I have been in has it. often you can find bags or bundles of scraps in their remainders section really cheap. I have also seen it in the fabric or hobby section of some of the larger department stores. You might also look for scraps at a build a bear store, although I think they use precut kits.

They use pre-cut kits, I have two bears from there lol  ;D
Uhm but try hobbycraft as well, they sell fur in various sizes/colours/textures, they're quite good bit on the pricey side but then teddy fur can be sometimes...
