Finishing touches: Face
Firstly pin the muzzle. It will be easier to see if you will like the face expressions or not.
1.Take white color yarn and with tapestry needle make white lines on the upper part of the eyes.
2.With black color yarn make the eyebrows.
Sewing all parts together: I prefer firstly to pin all parts, so it will be visible if any part is not centered. I suggest to use safety pins and pin all the parts, than start sewing.
1.Sew the head on the body.
2.Sew the muzzle on the face.
3.Sew the tail.
4.Sew the hands.
5.Sew the foots on the body.
