Fold right sides of face together, whip stitch up side of head, weave

turn head piece inside out and smooth side seams, now stuff loosly and
begin to close with whip st along back of head to cloth

**NOTE:
I added a bow (or ribbon) and pulled to give a neck feature, and put bows
in ears, ALWAYS triple knot bows to ensure babies can't open and choke.
