After trimming the molds on the felt, start sewing the paws like yo-yo according to the following steps.Working this out!
The Paws
1st - So, tack the boundaries of the circle.
As a result, the end of the points will look like this:
2nd - Start filling. Here I used silicon fiber Santa Fe.
3rd - Finalize. Finish the sewing of the yo-yo and they will look like this:
The Body
4th - Now start sewing the turtle's head. Pin the two cutouts.
And start to sew. I used the line here the same color as the felt. Normal sewing thread, a thread only for the stitches to be small and delicate.
5th - Begin to fill the head of the turtle.
6th - Finalize and it will look like this:
The Hull
This is the circle for the hull.
7th - Make a big Yo-yo, do the same as done as legs.
8th - Most noteworthy, I put first steel straw to fill. Then I supplemented with the silicon fiber.
In conclusion, the big Yo-yo hull will look like this:
The Cap

10th - Tack this way. Approximately 1,5 cm into the circle.
