This would be good as a group project or if you need a number
of small gifts or party favors.
Using a large needle poke two small holes in the doll head where
the antennae belongs. Dip the end of the chenille stem in craft
glue and insert it into the hole. Apply glue to the opposite end
of each piece of chinells stem and add beads. Glue or stitch the
wiggle eyes in place. Stem stitch the mouth with red floss.
Begin with the yellow chenille around the neck and wrap the
body of the doll with alternating strips of the yellow and black.
You can either glue them in place or couch the chenille with your
needle and thread.
Trace the wing pattern on your tulle and cut out two layers.
Stack the wings on top of each other and gather the center of the
wings slightly and stitch to the back of your little bee. Add a
pinback and it is ready to wear.
