Assembly

Sew the beak with the upper shape between the eyes.
Sew legs and feet together, then legs to body.
The legs are optional, you can make only the feet and sew them directly to the body, it will make it look like a duckling.

Align the brown parts of the wings and the body before sewing.
You can use different colors to make a white or yellow duckling.
Details always make the difference!
