Comment faire

2. Make the legs, the wings and the comb from floral wire as follows:
For the legs: cut two pieces of floral wire each measuring approx. 80cm.
For the comb: approx. 40cm.
For the wings: two pieces measuring approx. 40cm.

3. Double over the floral wire to twist the ends together. Follow the same procedure to make the legs, the comb and the wings.
Form the feet and twist the ends together.

4. Put the felt pieces together (right sides facing out) and sew together with buttonhole stitches all the way around.
When having sewn 7cm along one side, attach the wing between the two pieces of felt and continue sewing.
At the tip insert the comb and continue sewing. Don’t forget the wing at the other side.
