    Part 3

    cut foam on top at front tie-in (original Thunder-thighs has both layers of foam folded over here but on small hooks like this #10, it's a bit too big for me)




    move thread back one segment and add wing (I use landscape fabric; optional but I like the way it looks)




    fold the foam strip back and tie off to create head




    and trim



    rear legs made from 1mm strip of foam cut to shape



    tie overhand knot in a piece of sexi-floss

    insert rear leg
