• Eyes & Nose: Use sewing pins to mark out your desired face layout on the front of the head. Embroider two vertical line stitches with 4 strands of black yarn for the eyes. Centered right between and slightly lower than the eyes, embroider a small “X” shape to create Miffy’s classic cross-shaped nose.
• Optional: Apply a tiny dab of cosmetic blush right under each eye for a cute, rosy-cheeked finish!
