I’ve almost done with all the plush feature details. I am using quality wool felt & everything has been hand sewn down using a teensy fairy stitch. I think this mimics machine embroidery pretty damn well honestly!

Completed parasaur tail for the premade. Features a hidden belt tunnel that passes through the foam core.
