For this one - you do a front and back and cut a circle for the face. Attach partially to face, stuff, then complete attachment. Sew the front and back together leaving opening, turn out. Stuff the ears light, then sew in an arc across (to add ear dimension). Then stuff bear, sew opening closed. If intended for a young child, it's easier to embroider the eyes on before you sew up the bear.
