Melly & Me have started a fantastic little series on their blog called “Tips & Tricks Tuesday“.

Their first tip/trick addresses one common softie-making question: “How do you sew and turn out those small softie parts?“. This includes parts like ears, little arms or legs, feet, horns, etc. that are easy enough to sew up but can drive one to instant insanity when it comes to turning them right-side out.

Melly provides a very clear tutorial accompanied by excellent pics.
