the eyes. Sew the muzzle on neatly and carefully.
★ Position the ears evenly on the sides of the head. I have placed them between rows 5 and 6 starting
from the top.

position. You can sew 1 or 2 stitches from under the hind legs to the body to tack the legs close to the
body if they are flaring out too far.
