Before Cedric came to life in the books he was a handmade teddy bear.
I made Cedric to sit approximately 4 inches tall and filled him with premium glass beads to give just the right weight. I hand wove his fabric using a beautifully soft Tencel yarn and a twill structure which is what gives him his unique diagonal line and diamond pattern. I cut and hand stitched him together before finishing him with a stitched nose and glass eyes.
I completed every stage by hand using traditional techniques meaning approximately 20 hours of love went in to making him.
