Vintage Teddy Restoration project #1
This lovely teddy was in need of a new head joint and a repair to his paw pad which had torn. The joint was remade, reuniting his head to his body again, and the paw was carefully reconstructed using some new velvet as a base. We retained the original material, supporting it with the new velvet and stitching the old to it.
