Teddy bear fur mat?
« on: 30 January 2014, 11:07:36 PM »
Hello all, I am looking to do a teddy bear fur mat. Has anyone got a good source for faux fur/teddy bear fur that would be suitable and readily available in the UK? Thanks in advance

Something like the Fabric Warehouse (or any place that sells fabric/cloth, etc), maybe?

If you have a Boyes store near you they often have faux fur in their haberdashery section.

You could buy a tatty toy from a charity shop and eviscerate it.

My Oxford English Dictionary refers to a haberdasher as a seller of small articles of dress. I'm sure it could include hats?  :) Did you just happen upon that image?  :D

After a 4' x 4' for a gaming table like this

A decent cloth shop should be able to help. That said I've had a look around to here and not found anything useful yet that would't cost an arm and a leg (of fore-mentioned teddy bear).

I keep forgetting that usage. Over here, a haberdasher typically refers only to a hatmaker.

I'd think of that as a milliner, but who knows these days.
I think you should change your profile pic to the furry hat one, it's quality!

That's a modiste you are thinking of, surely.
