I used felt for the eyes since it is sturdy and the edges don't fray but you could use any kind you want, leather, vinyl or an embroidery machine if you have one. I did notice that the mine has the potential to rip since I added a lot of stuffing at the end, so if you plan on having a firm Yoshi packed with stuffing check how strong your fabric is and if it seems a little "delicate" I would suggest trying knit interfacing to prevent any tears in the fabric. Notes About Fabric: The fabric I used is very plush and soft (it was called Ultra Cuddle Fleece), I got mine at Joann's Fabric Store in the section where they keep the blanket fabrics. After marking out your pieces, cut each of them out and check to see if you have all them. You will also need to mark the dart positions and the slits. Make sure to check the pieces so you know how many of each to cut and if they need to be flipped over. I included this as a reference in the printable pattern. I separated my pattern pieces by color to make this part easier.
