I think this polar bear stitched by Linda is an older Melissa Shirley design, but I'm not sure. I am certain that it has charm galore!

In the comments Linda says she stitched the bear with Fuzzy Stuff, which is a Rainbow Gallery thread. It comes in lots of colors and is pretty easy to stitch with as long as you remember to cut shorter lengths. The second link below has stitching tips and information about the thread itself.

The next time you have a polar bear to stitch, think of Linda and Fuzzy-Wuzzy.
