    None of the fabric on Beaker's noggin is sewed. The red felt in his mouth was glued to the mouth plate before I put it in place, and then his fleece skin is just a piece of fleece I measured out and then stretched around the tube and glued in the back. I covered the front of his jaw in the same fleece and glued it in place. It means there's kind of a funny little seam running up the back of his head and along the bottom of his mouth, but for the most part you don't really notice and it pretty much just looks like it was machine sewn, even though it's actually hot glued.
