Assembly & Face Shaping Proper placement is key to capturing Tweety's iconic expression: Assembling the Eyes: First, sew the black pupil onto the green circle. Then, sew this combined piece onto the lower-center section of the white oval. Add some white embroidery highlights to the black pupil if you haven't already. Attaching the Eyes to the Head: Pin the eyes to the middle of the head, leaving about 2-3 stitches of space between them. They should sit right above the chubby cheek sections. Sew them securely in place. Facial Embroidery (Eyelashes & Eyebrows): Using black embroidery thread, sew thick, dramatic eyelashes curving upwards from the top edges of the eyes. Embroider thin, highly-arched eyebrows a few rounds above the eyes to give Tweety his classic innocent/surprised look. Beak and Hair: Sew the beak directly between the eyes, aligning its top edge with the bottom of the eye whites. Curve it slightly downward as you sew. To make his hair, attach black yarn to the very top center of the head, chain 3 (or make a few simple loops), and secure them to stand upright. Joining Head and Body: Sew the head to the body. Ensure the seam is extremely tight and secure to prevent the large head from wobbling. Garnish the neck seam with extra stuffing before completing the final stitches if needed. Attaching Arms and Legs: Sew the arms to the sides of the body right below the neck. Sew the legs to the bottom of the body, angled slightly outward so Tweety can sit flat and balanced.
