French Knots for eyes?

mississippiqltr 01-27-2012 06:45 AM

I think I have that one as well!

Tiny beads or use a Micron pen.

Personally, I would make black bead eyes and a button nose...Use a little rouge applied with a Qtip for the cheeks and NO mouth......done several this way. I like to think the mouth is hidden in the beard....it will cute with or without features. I love these mini's. Been making a few myself.......originally, I wanted to reduce stash....Ha! Hasn't even made a dimple....LOL!!!

exactly what i was thinking...Amish Santas.......................ROFLOL....standing back up and finding blocks cling to my clothes

Sometimes I just put in 2 dots for the eyes and call it done, good luck. Yours turned out great!

Very cute. Would love to see your Santa faces when all done.

Love your pattern and you did a super neat job on the piecing Miz Mary! Yay for you & paper piecing!
For the faces: how about round red noses and little round black eyes with twinkle wrinkles in the corners?
