Then, sew on the ears, securing them with pins first. The ears should be positioned symmetrically, sewn approximately between rows 4-10 of the head.
1)Use pink yarn to embroider the nose.
2)Use black yarn to embroider the outline of the nose, eyelashes, and eyebrows.
3)Use white yarn to embroider highlights in the eyes to make them look more lively.
Next, sew on the horns, securing them with pins first. The horns should be positioned symmetrically, sewn approximately between rows 3 and 4 of the head.
Sew the head to the body, first securing them in place with pins all around. When there’s a small opening left, stuff the gap between the neck and head with polyester fiberfill. Stuff firmly to prevent the head from bending. Sew closed, hiding the end of the thread inside the piece.
Sew the wings to the back, approximately between rows 38 and 39.
