Sleepy Bear by Catherine Arlin

This is an outstanding 12" mohair bear made by Catherine Arlin. He is made from blond mohair with wool felt paw pads. He has glass eyes with "eyelids" which appear to be made of wool, and give him an endearing, sleepy look. He has a hand stitched nose and mouth and is firmly stuffed. He is wearing a hand made plaid robe and sleeping cap. He has always reminded me of a teddy bear version of Scrooge!
