PUTTING THE BEAR TOGETHER:
Begin by sewing 3 magnets inside their covers across the bottom inside body making sure the two ends attract and not repel. Stuff ea end and sew end to body. With needle and yarn sew tog 5 rounds for one foot and then sew top of foot to underside of one body. Rep for second foot. Then rep for next two feet on other body half. Sew on the muzzle and eye patches to one end for the face. Cut out eyes and nose from felt and sew on. With needle and yarn embroider simple lines for the bear’s mouth. Because of the nature of magnets ea back half of the bears should attach to any front half and vise a versa, but not two faces and two back halves.
