UPCOMING THEMES
TBA!
The face on that pattern (that's incredible that you found the original!) Reads cute clown, not creepy clown. I think you'll rock it. If you're doubting yourself, know that people find baby proportions cute, which means bigger eyes, slightly further apart and further down on the head (I know, it sounds like I'm kinda describing pennywise from the most recent IT films but trust me).
Good luck to your friend!
Added the face today. I tried to implement your tips but wow, stitching a face on is a lot harder than it sounds ๐
I believe you! That's why I like safety eyes with silly little u-shaped smiles. But the stitching will definitely last a lot longer (and repair easier if needed).
I like to put pins where I think the eyes should go before I either stitch or safety eyes so that I can move them around until they look right
