Grizzly Bear by Cindy Nelson
This Grizzly Bear pillow is perfect for a cozy cabin decor! This one of a kind, fabric collaged Grizzly Bear pillow is approximately 15"x15". It is made with various brown batik fabrics that are 100% cotton. The background is a cream colored fabric with a small brown motif and the borders are a complementary brown batik with a yellow swirly pattern. The entire front of the pillow is quilted in a meandering pattern with envelope closure on the back. A plush, 100% non allergenic insert is included.
Shipping, tracking, and insurance is included in price.
My Environmental Design degree from UC Davis has taught me to see with creative eyes. I spent years as a professional interior designer working commercially for an architecture firm and then later for myself as a residential interior designer.
I have been sewing for over 40 years (yikes!) and quilting for 17 years. I chair a local chapter of Quilts for Kids, Inc. and have since 2008. I have made hundreds of quilts for children with life threatening diseases in need of a comfort quilt. It is from this experience that I really fell in love with the art of quilting. However, the process of making an entire quilt can be quilt lengthy and arduous. For me, making pillows is a great way to keep in touch with my sewing machine without having a long affair.
Animals are my muse as in reflected in my animal portraits and other quilted animal pillows. My house (and heart) is full, with two lazy cats and two dogs who mean well, but don't always behave well. I have owned many animals over my lifetime, all of them rescues. I believe every rescue animal comes with a unique story to tell, and I have been blessed many times over to spoil each one that has come my way.
When I am lucky enough to combine my sewing & quilting skills with my love for animals...it makes what I do, truly the best job in the world.
