6) Pin the face onto the body, run the pins at 90 degrees to the seam so the sewing machine can sew over them without breaking the needle. Use a neat zig zag to sew into place.

7) Install the safety eyes, I like to snip the excess stem off using pliers, for easier stuffing.

8) Using black embroidery thread stitch on the nose and mouth,  start by making a 'v' for the nose, then make a vertical stitch down from the point of the v. Finally stitch a 'w' shape for the mouth.

9) This is what your bunny should look like at this stage
.

10) Place the front of the body onto the back, right sides together. Pin all the way around.

11) Excluding the bottom edge, sew all around leaving a 2" gap for turning and stuffing.

12) Trim in between the ears leaving a 2mm margin right that the bottom, this will give you a neater seam once you turn him right-way-out.

13) Pin the duster into the bottom of the bunny, evenly spacing the pins all the way around and tucking in the noodles as you go.

14) Sew all around the base using straight stitch, then seal and strengthen the edges using a zig zag stitch.

15) Turn the right way out using the gap you left earlier
