Assembling Instructions:
- Place and secure the jacket onto the body with pins, so that you locate the spots where to attach the arm to. Mark the spots with few pins.
- Sew the arms to the side of the body. For your reference, I attached the arms between rnds # 32-38.
- Sew the legs to the bottom of the body between rnds # 46-50.
- Sew the tail to the back of the body between rnds # 45-50.
- Create the belly button embroidering an X with black cotton thread on the body.
