Assembling a giraffe
Sew the head to the body. Further, for convenience, I pin the details of the muzzle on the head and sew. First, the bridge of the nose, horns and ears. Then we sew on the beads, and behold, the muzzle is ready.
We sew spots on the body in random order.
We outline where the handles will be located and sew.
The tail remains. We collect 6 ch and finish knitting, leaving a tail for sewing.
On the other hand, we make a brush from a brown thread. The tail can be sewn on.
That’s it, the giraffe is ready!
It remains to sew him an outfit.
The pattern of panties can be arbitrary. It’s almost hand drawn by me.
Sew all the seams, insert an elastic band into the pants and the outfit is ready. Pants made of fabric with a children’s pattern will look very interesting.
The giraffe is ready!
