Step 8

9. Snip 1/8 in/3 mm into all curved seam allowances, to release the tightness of the curved seam. Be careful not to cut through the seam stitches. Clip around the head, the neck, the underarms, and the hands.

Step 9

10. Turn the body right-side out through the opening at the lower edge. Use the chopstick to turn out the arms. Be patient and gentle.

Step 10

11. Find the two leg pieces that you cut in step 4. Fold one leg, lengthwise, right-sides together, and pin. Sew the long edges of the leg together. Reinforce the top leg opening and toe points with a few backstitches. Repeat this step for the second leg.

12. Turn both leg pieces right-side out, using the chopstick.

13. Using the stuffing material, stuff both legs until firm. Be patient, and use small pieces of stuffing, one at a time. Leave approximately 1 in/2.5 cm of each leg unstuffed at the open end.

14. Pin the stuffed legs in place at the base of the body between the front and back pieces and roughly 1 in/2.5 cm in from each side of the body.

Note: The stitched seam of each leg is the outer edge seam, so that the doll’s toes point inward.
