For most of these you’ll be using a ladder stitch to close the soft blocks. This is a simple stitch and one that hides within the fabric, so you don’t even see it!
The trick is, not to pull your thread too tight- it will pucker and not look so great.
You’ll find the full tutorial for the ladder stitch here.
