[SakutoNoSAI]

@jadegreeneyes85 This is a really old project, so it might not exist anymore. But I would snoop around on instructables, the MAKE website or e-mail Bre asking where to find the old PDFs.

[deaddodance]

just because i can't spell doesn't mean i'm stupid, you were smart enough to know what i meant but lacked the maturity by adding a stupid comment.

[sOciO13PaThiO]

hey he kinda deserved it

[ferretluver1113]

[DasAntiNaziBroetchen]

Lol! uberowned!

[Masterdate]

Lack of grammar/spelling isn't stupidity, it's ignorance

[EPICT0ASTER]

@deaddodance but you missed the point that bad spelling detracts from your statement.

[cheerupsweetiexX]

i think they're cute!

they remind me of my uglydolls :]

[sprmcmmndr]

my new fave youtube video!!!

[Superjadi]

Wierdo!

[chayatocha]

gee, thank you so much.

I just thought it was cute.

[delushcious11]

How do you sew the mouth on after it has been stuffed?

[kiriaka1972]

Using normal needle and thread you can: Find your starting point, DO NOT knot the end of the thread. Pull the needle and thread through your doll by gripping the fabric, and a teensy bit of stuffing. Let the end of the thread disappear into the doll, but not all the way out the other end. Now, pull sew a few more stitches pulling tight, and yourll see the thread will be lodged pretty good, keep gripping your fabric, sewing only the surface of the doll, not all the way through the doll.

[plasticuniverse]

Too cute <3

[blimppmilb]

What are LED's that can be used for eyes?

[zushi22]

[DealyRizazamatizazz]

I took the class for nine weeks..mostly we discussed what you could do with sewing, and how to thread a needle...this video is short..I think my math is within the realm of possibility.
