    I love these little guys!! Your eyes are very nice.

    So, are you saying you put numbers on back of the paper underneath the appliqué, and the numbers are still there? Am I understanding that the paper is still there?
    Or am I all crossed up here?

    I think they are lovely, but if you don't like the eyes would you consider sewing buttons on?

    I think the eyes are fine. Maybe the pencil marks will wash out. Very cute project.

    I love your snow people. I wouldn't do anything different with the faces. They all look good.

    The snowfolks are adorable, the faces look fine the way they are. But if you are not happy with them, you could use a french knot for the eyes and a larger french knot for the nose, or you could use those tiny buttons that come in different shapes and colours for your eyes and nose. Beautiful work.

    They are all so adorable. Did you have a pattern? sometimes it is easier to embroider the eyes, but yours look great.

    What? You don't like the faces? I think they are perfect, happy snow people faces! They look exactly as they should to me, and as you said, how could you get those tiny pieces of fabric to stay down and look right. I've made snowmen whose faces didn't look as nice as yours. Be proud........these snow people are perfect!
