    Sew the edge of your material to the bear. if there is more material to fit around the hole than the hole is big enough continue to sew until you complete the circle. then pull out the material and sew up any extra material :) (im sorry if you can understand this step, im not very good at instructions

    Your bear should then look like this :) push the material back inside and sew on press studs to seal the bear :) now you can take it wherever you want...a sleepover with hidden snacks, or use itt for your toiletries :) Thankyou x
