Assembly
Install the 12mm safety eyes between rounds 14 and 15 of the head, spaced exactly 9 stitches apart. Stuff the head firmly. Sew the muzzle directly between rounds 12 and 16, centered below the eyes. Stuff the muzzle lightly before closing the seam.
Using black cotton yarn, embroider a thick, triangular nose on the upper edge of the muzzle and a straight vertical line pulling downward to define the mouth. Sew the eyebrows directly above the eyes, spanning across rounds 11 and 12.
Sew the flattened ears to the upper sides of the head, spanning from round 5 to round 8. Stuff the body firmly, maintaining its flat oval shape. Sew the back of the head to the front opening of the body (Rounds 1 through 4 of the body).
Pin the front limbs to the bottom front of the body (Rounds 2 through 5) and sew them securely. Pin the hind limbs to the lower rear flanks of the body (Rounds 10 through 13) and attach. Sew the green floral base securely onto the top center of the back.
Attach the 9 crimson roses densely onto the floral base. Tuck the 6 green leaves under the outer edges of the roses to frame the arrangement.
