Assembly
You will now bring life to your little monster and sew it together! Sew the ears and bolts onto your monsters head. I like to use dress making pins to hold pieces in place while sewing them together. Stuff the body firmly and sew it onto the monster head. Then sew on the arms and legs. Then use black thread and sew on a mouth, eyebrows and stitches on the monsters body. If your monster is going to wear a bow then sew that onto your monster as well, first take a long piece of the same colored yarn that you used to create the bow and tie a knot around the middle of the bow tightly, then sew in place with the long ends of the yarn. Now enjoy your new little friend!
