Introduction
In this repair, we will be reinforcing a microbead plush by creating a bag for the microbeads. Using this repair, we can extend the duration of items a loved one has given or keep these items in near-perfect condition. Before starting this repair, you should have a spool of a thread in the plush's color to make any repairs unnoticeable. This repair will take a while and can get messy; for example, when flipping the plush casing, use an area that is easy to clean.
What you need
-
-
Look for seams in the microbead plush that you can tear to remove its contents.
-
Using a seam ripper, make a hole the size of your thumb.
-
-
-
-
Measure about 20 times the length of the plush in thread.
-
Push the thread through the eye of the needle until both sides of the needle have an equal amount of thread.
-
Create a small loop using the loose ends, leaving about 2 centimeters to wrap around the base of the loop. Push the excess through the loop to create a knot.
-
With those final stitches, your microbead plush shouldn’t spill anymore.
