Shell+Tail
Unless you are lucky enough to find a stuffed turtle shell with the white edging, this has to be added. I cut a strip a little longer than the outside of the shell and about 2.5″ wide out of an old t-shirt. Sew along the edge to make a long tube, then turn inside out so the seam is on the inside. Stuff with Poly-Fil then sew to the underside of the shell, leaving the open ends at the base to leave room for the tail. Then sew the tail at the base of the shell and join the white border over the tail and sew up any holes. I used a sew-on snap at the top of the tail to attach it to the shell so it would stay up.
