IV) FINISHING

Depending on how your hat looks like, you might have to put some stuffing in to have it not crease on the inside.

Weave the WHITE tail of the hat from the outside to the base of the hat then use it to sew the hat on top of the duck's head. Finish off and bury what's left of the tail inside the duck's body.

WIP of my ducky lucifer, working on the bow and I still have to make the lapels to and get some tissu for the crown and undershirt (gotta be honest, I'm not sure I'll do the undershirt yet 😅)
