ASSEMBLY
Assemble in this order for best results!*
Attach arms to body.
Using long tail and yarn needle, pinch together and sew closed the top of each arm. Position arms as desired on the body and sew on across the top. If it helps, use a stitch marker or small pin to hold the arms in place while working. My arms are positioned at the top of the body, just under the head, to create shoulders.
Create face on top of pizza slice.
Sew on pepperoni slice using tails, then attach safety eyes in the middle of each OR just use the safety eye to secure the pepperoni to the slice. Sew or glue on olive mouth.
My positioning of the face – left eye: middle is five rows from the top of the yellow. Right eye: middle is three rows down from top of the yellow. Mouth is around six rows up from the point.
Sew together top and bottom of pizza.
Using long tail from the bottom pizza piece, sew the top and bottom together. I sewed into the back of the top slice so the stitching would not be visible on the front. When finished, do not cut off tail – weave it through the slice so it is in position to sew the slice onto the head, around five rows from top and in the center.
Sew pizza slice to front of face.
Using tail, sew pizza slice onto the front of the head.
