Finishing:
Attach the body parts in ways look good to you. I sew the ends of arms and legs closed flat before attaching, but you can do however you prefer.
After attaching all the body parts it's time to get creative! How do you want your bear to look, just a nose and eyes? Or do you want to add more features? I added 2 eyelashes to each eye for my bears.
