Crocheted Dove Christmas Tree Ornament

I am looking for a crocheted pattern of a dove to hang on a Christmas tree. My preference would be one that the body, tail, and wings are made separately, starched, and then put together. Maybe this is not possible, but any pattern would be greatly appreciated.

It is to hang on a Christmas tree at church in memory of a loved one. We pay $2.00 to hang it and the proceeds go to a charity after Christmas. I would also like to make some for others who cannot afford to purchase a dove or to pay to hang it. That is my quest for this year; to do as many as I can and save toonies for people who want to do it, but can't afford to. I am on an extremely limited budget so may not be able to do many, but even a few will help.

All patterns will be so much appreciated. Thank you.

Dove of peace in crochet with step-by-step
Stitch feet, made with felt beak, and eyes with a pen for fabric.
Little body : make 4 chains;
- 1st, 2nd and 3rd row: 4 points lower;
- The 4th to the 11th row: 6 points lower;
- The 12th to the 14th row: 4 points lower.
Fold it in half and put acrylic blanket.

Wings : make 12 chains;
1st row: 12 lows;
-2 Nd and 3 rd row: 10 lows;
-4th and 5th row: 8 lows;
-6 And 7th row: 6 points lower;
-8 And 9th row: 4 points lower.
(Maybe we should frown least the wings before you preach them.)

Tail: Make 8 chains;
-9 Careers with 8 points lower.
I thought it was great with 9 rows, so it's good to make a dove and then make adjustments.
