[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Stuffing

[Jolene Nemeth]

he sounds so cute. yes dont overstuff. when stuffing a small animal or
a smaller piece of an animal, i tend to grab less filling at a time.
if i am stuffing a large area that i dont want lots of lumps i pull
off the largest amount i can at one time. hope this helps.
