1.Trace pattern onto freezer paper.
2.Cut out the freezer paper template and iron
to scrap of doubled fabric( I used muslin for the sample).
3. Stitch all the way around the template and
then cut out leaving a 1/4 inch seam.
4. Make a small slit through one layer only and
turn the heart through the opening and stuff, then close opening with a
ladder stitch.
5. Use a soft lead pencil and lightly draw the
face. When happy with the features outline the eyes with brown pigma or
gel pen outline the nose as well with brown. Use white paint to paint
the whites of the eyes. Color in the iris and add a dot of white paint
for highlights. I used colored pencils to color in the eyelid and shaded
the eyes and down sides of nose with terra cotta prismacolor pencils.
Blend the colors with a Qtip. Add eyebrows.
6. Outline the lips with red gel pen and fill in the lips with desired
color. Add a white highlight to the lips and shade above the lips and
under the lips with terra cotta pencil. Draw a small heat at the edge of
each lip for a dimple. I did a small amount of needle sculpting at the
corners of the eyes and the corners of the mouth.
7. Add your embellishments for hair. I sewed on
a few ribbon roses at the corners of each top side of the heart. I then
used several different kinds of beads to string on some hair. I fasten
off each strand of beads before beginning another.
Sew a pin back to the back of the pin and there
you have it!
Enjoy!
