I'm so sorry, I had fogto to check for questions.

I would say about 3 to 6 inches - that seems to be about the general size of stuffies in most swaps I have been in.

Personally, I hand sew felt stuffies - there is no way I could work neatly with material and turn it inside out at this size - I admire those that can!

karenchristine13, if you have a look at these stuffies on flickr at the way the faces are sewn on - I can't think of the stich, but it is a really easy under over type thing - you could use this stitch entirely for around the outside too! I would say come join and have a go, I'm sure you will get the knack of simple hand sewing!
