ASSEMBLY
1. Head Details: Sew the Black eye patches onto the head. Using White yarn, embroider small dots onto the center of the black patches for pupils. Sew the two small Red head nubs on top of the head.
2. Attach Limbs: Sew the Head securely to the top of the Body. Sew the Arms to the sides of the Body, just below the neck. Sew the Legs to the bottom of the Body.
3. Belt & Pouches: Wrap the Brown Belt around Deadpool’s waist and sew securely. Sew the small Brown pouches onto the belt.
4. Body Markings: Using Black yarn and a tapestry needle, embroider the distinct black markings onto Deadpool’s chest and back as seen in the reference image. These are typically irregular, almost blob-like shapes.
5. Shoulder Strap: Sew one end of the Black shoulder strap to the top back of the body/shoulder and the other end diagonally across the chest to the opposite hip.
