How to Assemble:
Head and Body:
Tips:
- Use a yarn needle for sewing parts.
- Take your time; sewing slowly gives neat results.
- Use pins first to fix parts in place before sewing to check the position.
- If you want movable arms or legs, you can attach them using buttons or thread joints.
How to Assemble:
1. Head and Body:
• First, stuff the head and body nicely with fiber filling.
• Then, sew the head and body together carefully. Make sure it is attached tightly so the head doesn’t wobble.
2. Feet:
• Stuff both feet lightly.
• Sew the feet to the bottom of the body.
• Place them equally on both sides so your bunny can sit or stand properly.
3. Arms:
• Do not stuff the arms too much, just a little bit.
• Attach both arms to the sides of the body, near the top area (under the head).
• Make sure both arms are at the same height and position.
4. Ears:
• Lightly stuff the ears if you want them to be puffy, or you can leave them flat.
• Sew the ears on both sides of the head.
• You can place them slightly to the sides or more towards the top, depending on your design preference.
5. Final Touch:
• After sewing all parts, check if everything is tight and secure.
• You can now embroider the eyes, nose, or mouth using yarn or embroidery thread. ( optional – you can also fix safety eyes instead of embroidery)
• If you want, you can also add blush using fabric paint or soft pastel for a cute look.
