Cheeryo 5� Anthro Doll Preparation: Read through the instructions before you begin. Cut pattern out. Place the fabric, fur side down onto your work area, making sure the pile runs down towards you. Place the pattern pieces onto the back of the fabric so that the arrows are facing the same direction as the fur pile. Cut out all the pieces carefully as to not cut the fur pile. Trace the 2 inner ears, and 4 paw pads onto the suede or felt, all facing the same direction. Cut out. A 3 mm seam allowance has been included in the pattern.
Body: Sew around the body piece. Leave the opening. Using the awl pull the trapped fur out of the seams. Make a cut in the back and Turn right side out.
Arms: Place the inner and outer arm together and sew around until meeting at where you started. Knot and finish off. Make a slit where indicated and using a pair of hemostats turn right sides out (thought the slit). Using the hemostats or stuffing stick gently fill the arms. Insert the cotter pin (with a disk) Using a ladder stitch and strong thread close opening, with cotter pin protruding. Repeat for other arm.
Legs and paw pads: Sew around the leg leaving the bottom open. Lining up the toe and heel with the middle of the footpad, start at the toe and sew the paw pad in place adjusting as you go to make sure the heel is centered as you sew around the footpad. Make a slit where marked, and turn through, right sides out. Using the hemostats or stuffing stick gently fill the legs. Insert the cotter pin (with disk) Using a ladder stitch and strong thread close opening, with cotter pin protruding. Repeat for other leg.
Head: Cut a piece of stocking nylon. Stretch around the styrofoam ball. Pull excess to one side. With a sewing tread tie a not on the excess. I like to put two shades of nylon. A pink one first and a flesh color on top. Where the excess nylon is will be the bottom of the head. Get some wool for the hair and glue on top. Get the round piece of velour and do a gather stitch . Pull the tread a little then put some fiberfill and the ball. Pull and tie a knot.
Eyes: Just glue the eye into place. Make sure they are even.

Cheeryo 5� Anthro Doll Ears: Placing a suede or felt ear with a fur ear right sides together and sew around the curved edge, remove trap the fur from the seams. Turn through. Ladder stitch the ear opening closed, leaving the hanging thread attached. Repeat other ear. Attach the ears to the head using ladder stitch and the hanging thread, use the photo as a guide or place with pins first to make sure you are happy with them and that they are even.
Jointing: Attach the head by inserting the cotter pin front the head into the top of the body. From the inside of the tummy thread a disk onto the cotter pin and using the cotter pin turner, roll down the pins. Following the same manner attach the arms and the legs. Gently fill the top and bottom of tummy where the joints are with wool. Fill a stocking foot with steel shot, tie off with a knot and put into tummy for weight (optional) finish filling with wool. Using ladder stitch, sew up the back opening of the body. Clean all the seams by using an awl to pull out any trapped fur on the outside of the animal.
Tail: Sew around the tail and turn. Stuff very lightly. Sew to body.
Shading: Shade around the nose and eyes with Copic markers and blender as desired for that finishing touch and give it a name.
