Assembly

Sew the eyes and ears to the head. Make sure to fold the ears together at the bottom so that they curve inwards. Sew the tummy fur to the body and sew the arms and legs to the tummy fur. Sew the tail and head to the body. I find it very helpful to just pin everything together so I can make sure it looks right before I start sewing.

Enjoy you bouncy toy bilby 🙂

Many thanks for sharing your notions.
