Assembling

Whenever I start to assemble a Amigurumi plush, I use sewing pins to put it together first. This way I can move all parts around until I am happy and sew them on.

Position his snout just under the middle of the face, and sew it on, and while you do so, make sure to stuff it. Now the snout is on you can also sew on his nose.
Sew his legs on and place his ears. If you haven’t yet, make sure to sew on the inner ears to the base of the ears before attaching it to the body.
Don’t forget to put his tail on!
Last there are some feature you have to stitch on or use felt for it. Like his eyebrows, stripes and eyes. Just don’t forget any details!

And Tigger is done!
