Assembly
Face
Cut a small square of felt. Turn on side to make a diamond, sew onto body with a running stitch using matching colour cotton. Sew on beads for eyes (l have positioned these roughly 1 sc either side and 1 sc abovebeak- seephotopgraph).
Wings
Using long tail sew straight edge onto body. You can stitch further round to secure wings if you wish but I prefer to leave them free to "flap". Insert creme egg.
