Mohair Teddy Bear Fabric Helmbold – 12mm Sparse – Fawn on Brown

This 12mm sparse mohair teddy bear fabric, called Fawn on Brown, from Helmbold is wonderful fabric for making teddy bears and other little characters.  The backing is light milk chocolate colour and the pile is a 12mm, sparse, pale fawn colour.  The contrast between the pile and backing looks fabulous when trimming back around the muzzle.

This top quality German mohair fabric is particularly good for making smaller bears. as it has a sparse and short pile.

A good cotton sewing thread match to this fabric is Gutermann 1335. and a good extra strong thread is Gutermann Top Stitch 124

This mohair fabric is available in 1/16m, 1/8m, 1/4m and 1/2m pieces (the width of the roll is approximately 140cm including the selvedges and, therefore:-

• 1/16th is approx 25cm deep x 35cm wide,
• 1/8th is approx 50cm deep x 35cm wide
• 1/4m is approx 50cm deep x 70cm wide

Please note, although we try our very best, it is very difficult to photograph an exact colour match of the mohair fabric (but we do sell 8cm x 8cm swatches that may help you decide!).
