First I printed off a couple of jpegs of Bender from the link below. Then I cut him out so I had the right proportions for his body/eyes/feet. I changed his hands a bit - no fingers! My grey felt was a bit thin and I was afraid it would just pull apart if I made fingers. Anyway, he's entirely hand stitched and has pipe cleaners for arms and legs so he actually is a bender. Oh and I also used a lot of super glue on him. I figure my friend who I made it for will be putting him on a bag or something and I wanted to make sure that his antenna would stay put on his head. Also, I glued and also stitched the hands and feet to make sure they didn't slide off the pipe cleaner.
