  3. Attach Arms:

    • Sew an arm to each side of the upper torso right below the neckline, angling them forward slightly.

    • Center the fruit topper on top of the head between the ears and stitch it securely into place.

    • Eyes: Using brown/black embroidery floss, stitch two relaxed sleeping lines or closed curved arches around Round 8, spaced roughly 4–5 stitches apart.
