Thank you for your helpful video! My stuffed bunny finally has a face after 20 years!! Could never figure out how to start and finish the embroidery, your video was excellent!

Thank you for the tutorial! I followed the instructions and was able to repair the mouth of my favorite plushie that had become frayed and loose. Best wishes!

Your tutorials are so helpful, and your camera person does a great job too.

Thank you for explaining so clearly :) the mouse is gorgeous!

Perfect! I just fixed a Puffalumps mouth! I even used a small, blunt needle and just poked the end out near the mouth. Amazing video!

[@Chaletica]

Thanks for this video! Planning to sew a mouth and eyebrows onto a plush I'm making without having to open the head seams and this seems to work great!

[@longlivequinn]

Hi Wendi, thank you for such a detailed explanation, I’m just wondering, would this also work if ever I wanted to sew a pattern on my finished soft toy? 😊

[@patriciachandler340]

Making for the first time, plush toys for Spring Church sale. What I would have done without you? For one I gave thanks, for I had not a clue what to do with the face of the stuff animal. Thank you Wendi.

[@IwhimIwhim]

Can I make this thicker?? How?

[@taramellon2487]

[@pbonnie6051]

I have an art project and we hadve to make a sort of doll thingy, out of anything's we want and I always wanted to make a small plush but I messed up the smile x'D well, it's kinda hard with white thread xD i'm stupid
Thanks a lot !

[@lamirada90638]

I love it!

[@Ltechh]

Thank you so much this is super helpful! I wanted to put little mouth details on my plush and this really helped! 🙏🙏🥹

[@jaclynmoylan1905]

I have two dogs with floppy ears that I’m making. How can I tack those? Do you have any videos that would show a stitch I could use for that?

[@potatod8455]

Does the long needle work with minky fabric? And the hole still won't show?

[@Myro3456]

Thanks for this tutorial! So helpful!

[@omegadrake6119]

It's been years since I sew THANKS:)

[@stephanievanmiddelkoop6852]

Thank you very much! This helped me a lot with a cat plush which face I'm changing ♡

[@CorazonCoraza33]

Very helpful!! Thanks a bunch :D

[@CountryAlicia]

Thank you! This was so helpful!

[@dreamdancer84]

Hi, my stuffed animal's nose has gotten loose (it's done in a similar way to your mouse's mouth) is there a way to fix it (like push the thread back into the stuffing) instead of replacing the thread completely? 😊

[@WendiGratz]

Once it's loosened, pushing the threads in won't really hold. If it's just going to sit on a shelf it might work, but if it's going to be played with, you'll really need to replace it.

[@hahnak]

thank you so much. a wonderful tutorial!

[@grace2548]

Wow I love it!!! Where u buy that long needles n pattern?????

[@WendiGratz]

You can get a doll needle at any big box fabric store - I got mine at Hancock's or Joann's. There's a link in the video description for the mouse pattern. :-)

[@0JReynolds]

Love your mouse
