If you're not sure of the hat, I think if you change out the band with a color with more contrast it would make a big difference.

Thanks for the input, Colletta. Maybe a small change like that will make me like him a bit better. :)

i'm doing sunflowers but I think I might have some hidden surpises under the leaves like lady bugs, butterflies, grasshoppers etc. This would be interactive and you would have to lift the leaf to see what is hidden. I like making fun pieces. Moosegirl

That sounds adorable, Moose!

I have a set of twins to make these for, not mine but my nieces. they will be two in March.

I'll be starting on mine as soon as I finish a couple of things.

Love the farmer and agree with a change of head band.

Who wants to make the farmers wife?

:D

I could live with fuzzy!
