Embrioding the Face Step-2

Using the photo as a guide, embroider the face using 4 strands of embroidery floss and an embroidery needle. Embroider the face on the side opposite the color changes. Make a French knot for the nose and backstitch for the eyes and mouth. The nose is at the center of rnd 10, the mouth is at rnd 11, and the eyes are 4 sts wide and are placed on rnds 9-11. After you finish the face, take your needle and pull gentle on the mouth to create some slack for the smile.
