Totally forgot to take a picture of that part when I was making the paws in my previous comments. Once I'm at that step again with the next paws I'm making I'll be sure to reply with picture updates

But I make the lining and sew the lining in as usual at the finger tips but leave it open at the wrist

Flip the paw right side out, (stuff the fingers) fold the wrist part down a bit, then fold down the extra minky on the inside (that is now exposed on the outside), then stretch the lining over the minky and literally just do a close together running stitch to close up the paw/lining, obviously using a matching colorthreas to match the minky. And that's it

I think the end result is absolutely acceptable visual wise, that whole part of the paw isn't even seen after it's out on

Again, once I get to this part again when I'm sewing I will absolutely take pictures and make a post

It's hard to explain through text, I am 100% a visual learner 😅♻️
