Tail (make 2)

Assembling
Head:
The head must point downwards a little. It can be helpful to pin the head to the body first.
Sew through the stitches of the body and then through the head. And finally, stuff some extra
fiberfill into the neck before closing it completely to avoid a wobbly head. Weave in ends
thoroughly.
Ears:
Sew on the ears about 10 rows behind the eyes with about 8-10 stitches in between. Weave
in ends thoroughly.
Legs:
Place the legs under the tummy. They should point outward a bit. Sew the legs on about 3
rounds from the beginning of the body. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Arms:
Sew the arms on about 1 round from the top of the neck. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Tummy:
Sew the tummy on at the center of the body. Sew through the front loop only. Be careful to keep the tummy flat while sewing it on to avoid that it bulges out. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Tip: Sew on the arms and legs before sewing on the tummy, this will make it easier to place the tummy nicely.
Mane:
Pin the three pieces to the head. Attach the pieces sewing a few stitches at each end and in the middle. If Hilda is made for a small child, you may want to add some extra stitches in between as well. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Tail:
Sew the two pieces onto the center of the back side. Weave in ends thoroughly.
Enjoy!
