Suggested Sewing Features (Very Helpful)

1. Walking foot (built in is easiest)

2. Adjustable needle positioning

3. Stitch adjustments memory to easily recall what works best for straight, zig-zag, blanket stitches, etc.

4. Presser foot pressure adjustment. (Best if it’s “by the number” so you can get good results every time)

5. Not essential, but very  helpfull: needle position up or down; you choose, it happens! Side benefit the needle never un-threads when you start the next seam!!

 

 

Luxury Fur Tips

• Use serrated scissors

• Vacuum each edge after cutting

• Serge or zig-zag legs and arms then sew as for cuddle fabric

• For head and body serge or zig-zag the neck openings only – straight edge then 2 together

• Baste on the arms and legs with longer stitch length (Approx. 3mm)

• Cheeks – cut a liner 1/8” smaller – Sew Right Sides Together leaving opening to turn and stuff a little

• Reinforce Eye holes with fusible webbing

• Bunny tail: like a “yo-yo” gather with serger, long sewing machine stitch or by hand

• Attach the tail cheeks using a curved by hand

• Fill the body with weighted and alternate with fiber fill as desired. Use a funnel and a friend to help.
