No need to fill.
Fold the wing in half and sew just the outer loops of each string, leaving a long tail for sewing the wing to the body.
Try to meet the 4 wings in the center of the back. Looking at the butterfly from the front, be sure to overlap the bottom wing and add a few stitches to join the junction of the top wing with the bottom wing, making sure the finish is invisible.

Use your imagination to decorate. I made two circles of different sizes. Remember to repeat the same mirrored pattern on the other side.

Antennae
(Bee and Butterfly)

Chain 9, skip 2 chs, 1 dc, in this same ch, add 1 hdc and 1 sc, continue on the other chs: sl st 6. Sew it on the head, using the center of the eyes as a reference (safety eyes or embroidered).

Play
6 sc in the magic circle, 1 sl st to close. Leave a tail for sewing.

Assembly
Sew the cheeks close to the eyes. Sew the wings and the anteannae following the photos and the corresponding patterns.
Use a finer thread to embroider the eyes, it will make the work more delicate.

It's All Finished:
