MODELING OF THE MUZZLE.
Using a needle, pull both ends of the thread through the head very close to the ear and bring it out again head hole. Take one end of the thread and repeat the same with the other eye.
Pull both ends of the thread as hard as possible until the eyes move inward. Carefully tie both ends.
Once the eyes have been modeled, you can add white to the outer edge of the eye.
Take a long white cotton thread and sew a small stitch on the outer parts of the eye. Repeat these steps for the second eye. Tie the ends at the bottom of your head.
Before sewing, secure the muzzle with pins symmetrically between both eyes.
The eyes should be located close to the muzzle. The top of the muzzle ends between 14 and 15
in rows. Now carefully sew the muzzle to the head using a braided stitch. Occasionally check that the muzzle is still symmetrical. Before finishing sewing, sew muzzle as tightly as possible. Close the remaining hole and carefully sew the thread into the inside of the head.
Then sew the nose to the top of the muzzle, exactly in the middle. Sew with black floss
horizontal line from the nose 6 rows down.
Again, take the long black embroidery thread and stitch the eyebrows exactly 4 rows above eye diagonally at 2 Sc.
Now embroider tiger stripes starting from the forehead. Sew the black and white stripes horizontally in an uneven pattern using embroidery thread or thin cotton yarn. Repeat the same for the cheeks, using only black. Between the eyes and stripes make a distance of at least 4 Sc.
We sew the ears on the left and right to the head, with a distance of 6 rows between the MR of the head and the ear.
SEW ON THE REST OF THE BODY PARTS.
Carefully sew the head to the body. Make sure the head is sewn facing straight forward.
Sew the arms directly under the head on the left and right to the body.
Finally, sew the tail to the lower back, exactly in the middle.
