Tag for his hat:
Chain 3, make 2 picots (if you are not sure what a picot st is, check online), 3SC.
Fasten off and sew it to his hat where the red and black meet.
♥ Assembling:
To make sure you sew all parts in the right place, you can use some sewing pins to position them. When you are happy with the position, you can sew them on.
Sew the legs on to the bottom of the body, the front legs are pointing to the front. The back legs are pointing to the side.
Flatten his beak, and sew it just under the middle of the face.
Sew his bow just a bit under his beak.
For his hat, sew it on top of his head, but slightly to the side.
For the eyes you can either choose to use felt or you can embroider them on. I chose to embroider them on, cause yeah why choose the easy way haha. But which way you choose, Donald will look adorable.
I hope your Donald turned out lovely as well!
And don’t forget to share yours with the #DelinleaDIY
