Hi Fran  bear_wub

Try stuffing just the nose area with wood wool, I know it makes the sewing of the nose easier too!!

Yes, I used to have this trouble.... then I did 2 things:

1)  I stitch the nose BEFORE I close the neck.  That way I can add more stuffing to reshape as I stuff.

2)  I use Donna Mettling's stuffing stick!!!  HUGE difference, really!!  The stick is not listed on her website... but her contact information is!  http://www.donnasduinbruins.com/
