What an absolutely amazing project this turned out to be! I crafted one large throw, along with two beautifully soft white mink pillows, a charming brown teddy bear, and an adorable white bunny. The throw was in excellent condition, which made it a pure joy to work with. For the teddy bear, I creatively repurposed the lining of a brown coat to fashion its ears, paws, and even a cute little tie. The luxurious white mink cape was transformed into two delightful 14 by 14 pillows and one cuddly bunny. The same soft lining was also utilized in the bunny's ears and paws, as well as its tie, adding a lovely touch. To complete the look of both stuffed animals, I used some elegant buttons from the cape, enhancing their overall charm.

Cindy's Mink was repurposed into a Jointed Teddy Bear. The bear measure 14 inches high. Lining was used to make the collar, foot pads, paw pads and inner ears. There wasn't enough fur left over to make any additional items, but I did make a mini heart!!
