Attach the rounded thigh portions of the hind legs flat against the sides of the lower body in a seated position. ​Ears: Sew the ears vertically on top of the head, slightly angled to the sides. ​Details: Use black yarn to embroider paw lines. Add embroidery details around the neck transition with tan thread to mimic the fur markings shown in the image.
