face. Push a craft stick 1/2 way into one side of egg; secure with glue. Push other end of craft stick into body,
about 1-1/2” back from chest.
3. LEGS: Cover 4-1/2” length of dowel with 8” length of white jumbo loopy; glue one end of loopy to dowel and

of the body about 1” apart and 1” back from chest. Glue two back legs into bottom of body 2” back from front legs
and 1-3/4” apart.
4. FACE: Clip the loops of the loopy chenille in a 3” circle around the wide end of 3” egg; do not clip too close or
