Assembly and decoration
We put the belly into the shell, fix it with markers, the first we fix the marker at the beginning of the shell row, from it it is necessary to count 13 columns in the opposite direction and attach the second edge of the belly to the 14th column.
Sew on the head. We begin to sew on the head from the front, while sewing the head along the back, we bend the top of the shell and sew the head to the crease from the bend.
We sew paws. We attach the upper paws with a thread fastening stepping down 1 row from the head.
For the lower legs, we retreat down 3-4 rows and sew them to the junction of the shell and tummy.
