Assembly:
Make sure your frog's body is stuffed firmly, sew closed and weave in ends. Stuff legs and arms and sew them onto your frog's body. Insert your safety eyes in any stitch in the fourth row down from the top of your eye. Stuff the eye and then sew it onto your frog four rows down from the top of your head, and sew the second eye on 14 stitches apart. Embroider on a little mouth. And weave in all ends and trim them.
