Assembling

Sew the 2 leaves together, make sure you stuff it lightly before fully closing.
Then sew the head on to the leaves, where normally the stem would be. When done, also sew on a nose inbetween the eyes with the same beige color.
Last, sew on his hat! (you can also leave it loose if you are not planning to hang it, but I wanted to be able to hang it somewhere.)

I hope you enjoyed this pattern!
