Step 3Fix the Head
I unstuffed the head because it was too heavy for the baby to hold up her head. I mean, I assumed that. I didn't try it on her and watch her neck collapse. I was trying to avoid that.
But now the head was collapsey and sad. So, how to make it look perky without adding weight?
Oh you already know the answer: zip ties!
Yup. I taped zip ties in place to act as boning in a corset would. Then, once I was pleased with the general layout of them, I sewed over them with a whipstitch and secured them at both ends.
It totally worked!
Then I added a bit more stuffing loosely just to give it a more cuddly look.

Oh my gosh, I am SO GRATEFUL to you right this second. I have this huge tomato head I am making for my son's costume and I didn't want it to be too heavy. You have just saved me.
