Assembly
Sew the bottom of your duck’s feet onto your legs and sew the legs onto your duck! Sew on the wings, the beak, eyebrows and a mouth! Weave in all ends and trim them. Sew the long ends of your inner tube together, then hold the short ends of your inner tube together to form the tube while you sew them together. Sew the handle onto the pail. Pinch the bow together in the middle and using a long piece of yarn wrap it around your bow tie a knot, use the same yarn to sew it onto your duck. Now enjoy your little summer duckie playset!
