All these Portland friends have had little babies! So the newborns need a softy… I haven’t completed the face for this guy yet.

Here she is, skinny limbs and all! Camobear2 is the schmancy show up in Seattle, with many other stuffies.

About her; What do you do when the heat index is over 105 and you need camoflauge material, but don’t feel like searching all over the garment district for it? Go to Dr. Jays and buy a 3XL camo shirt for $9.99! And what if you can’t find polyfill anywhere? You buy a $1.10 bag of cotton balls from Duane Reade! So the irony is the camo fabric is a cotton/poly blend, but inside, she’s all cotton! I am going to experiment a bit with the shape but plan to make more to try to raise a little income over here!

One project was to make a sandwich belt, which basically just needed to be two pieces of leather sandwiched (glued) to bonded leather. So I made mine reversable, silver metallic on one side, green on the other. I cut the circular shapes using an X-acto knife, not so fun when it’s a fatty little sandwich! I used some rivets and some cord and beads to trim it. I think the only thing connecting this with my theme is the round shape, and perhaps the colors… i also made a standard looking belt, natural-colored leather with brass buckle, nothing fancy, but forgot to photograph it! I’ll put it up later.
