/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

A friend of mine commissioned me to make a set of plush as a prop for her Maid-Sama cosplay. I used the pattern from picrelated and have almost complete the set except for the eyes. I was so focused on getting it right that I wanted to leave the face for last. This is my first time embroidering and didn't realize that I'd be putting myself in a pickle by waiting. Now that the plush is essentially complete, I can't reach to the underside of the fabric to poke the embroidery needle in and out like all of the tutorials show. What should I do?
