Assembling
Before I sew anything together I use sewing pins to position all pieces, this way I can easily move around things until I like it. I recomment you doing this as well.
Sew the frosting to the cupcake, mine came around row 20/21.
With a piece of white yarn sew a straight stitch along the top edge of the
frosting. Pull both ends of the yarn and knot it tightly.
Assemble the dragons head, sew on his ears and horns. Also stitch on some
‘frosting’ with some white yarn. Then sew the head on top of the frosting, in
the middle.
Position his feet, arms and tail as well and sew those on if you are happy. You
don’t have to position them evenly to give it a silly look.
Last stitch on some sprinkles with some scrap yarn in colors of choise!
I hope you enjoyed my little birthday gift to you! This won’t be long online. And if you made this little cutie, make sure to show me on social media!
Love
