| hi emma, ifill the limbs with fine glass granules up to the knee or elbow,then fill to the tops with heavyweight virgin fibre-fill,then of course seal the tops of the limbs, for the "body" i fill one third with the virgin fibre-fill,then use a "pop-sock" & fill with poly-beads,i make two of these,& place one towards the tummy area & one the bum area,then i carry on filling it with the fibre-fill,for the head i use a pop-sock & put about two desert spoonfuls of rust free steel-shot into it,i then surround the pop sock with the fibrefill,so the head has a nice "flop factor" you should know when it feels right to you,hope this helps a little? maureenxxx | |
