To attach arms and legs to body, secure thread to the arm area of the body using a long needle. Go through the hole in one arm, then through a button, then back through the arm and through the body. Now go through the hole in the second arm, through a second button, back through the second arm, through the body and back through the first arm. Keep repeating until the arms are secure. Attach legs in the same was as the arms.
