Don’t need to stuff.
Fold the wing in half and sew just the outside loops of each chain, leaving a long tail to sew the wing to the body.
Try to make the meeting of the 4 wings right in the center of the back. Looking at the butterfly from the front, make sure to overlap the bottom wing and add a few stitches to join the junction of the top wing with the bottom wing, making sure that the finishing is invisible.
Use your imagination to decorate. I made two circles in different sizes. Don’t forget to repeat the same pattern mirrored on the other side.
Antennae
Chain 9, skip 2 chains, 1 dc, in this same chain, add 1 hdc and 1sc, continue on the
other chains: slst 6. Sew it on the head, using the center of the eyes as reference (safety or embroired eyes).
Cheeks
6 sc in the magic ring, 1 slst to close. Leave a tail for sewing.
Assembly
Sew the cheeks close to the eyes. Sew the wings and anteannae.
Use a finer thread to embroider the eyes, this will make the work look more delicate.
Congratulations, you have completed the amigurumi cute butterfly pattern.
