Sew on the muzzle in black with lock stitches on the head, slightly stuffing the part with filling cotton before the last centimeters. Embroider the beech with quilting stitching in beige, embroider the "folds" with a diagonal stitch. Sew on button nose and button eyes. Sew the front and back together, leaving the narrow sides of the arms and lower leg edges open for filling. Fill the pug with stuffing and close the four holes, tightening the thread to create a curve. Sew the ears to the oblique seam, fold it forward and do not sew the tips too tightly on the head.
Cross the arms over the front and sew them tightly with the beige wool. Embroider black claws with short elastic stitches on the paws and legs.
Fill the tail with filling cotton, roll up slightly from the top and sew to the back.
