Click to watch video instruction.
 Muzzle decoration
Cut an eyelash in a half and glue it to the eyes.

Widen gaps between the stitches to install the eyes (use tweezers or scissors). Install the eyes
into the center of the spot (where a mr was) and install the eye and the spot into the hole. Pin the
spot; it may help to remove the eyes. Use strong thread matching color to sew the spots.

I glue the eyes. Drop enough glue on the back of the eye and inside the hole. Press and hold for a
few minutes. Embroider the whites.
Find the best place and glue the nose. Embroider the mouth and the nose line. Use cotton
thread and pull the thread tight.
Find the best place and sew the ears. Check if they are placed symmetrically. Embroider the
eyebrows.

Sew the lip. Match the center of the part and the mouth. Pull corners to the sides. Use thread
matching color. Sew tight. The head and the lip should look like a continuous part (as pictured).

I tinted the dimples a little.

the end of the round

Sew both edges of the headband.
