I use safety noses on my plushies, and while they look good, they usually leave the fabric around them pretty tight and wrinkled, sometimes to the point where I can’t even stuff the snout. I saw a video the other day where someone poked a hole in the fabric and put a safety eye inside the hole. I’m considering trying this, but I’m worried that the hole could cause issues or get bigger than it needs to be. I’ve tried to look more into this, but almost all of the info I can find on safety eyes is in regard to crochet plushies. What are the pros and cons of hole vs no hole, and are there ways to prevent the rest of the fabric from ripping if there is a hole?
