Decorating a toy.
You can come up with the design yourself or be guided by the photo.
We sew the hands behind 3SC and it will also be necessary to fix the hands with a thread just below the sewing point so that they do not bulge and fit snugly to the body.
We sew the belt and embroider a buckle on it.
We decorate the head: sew on the ears, glue the eyes (I have a distance between the eyes of 5SC), embroider the nose, eyebrows, mouth.
You can also embroider shoelaces, glue or embroider buttons, pockets, etc.
Sew the cap to the head.
Our soldier is ready!
