Cute & Quick Hand Stitched Doll Faces

I get a lot of questions about doll faces. So instead of painting them, why not try this easy embroidery pattern.  There is a fabulous Split Stitch Tutorial by Mary Corbet on her site, Needle n Thread that even a beginner can do with their eyes shut. The Tutorial can be found Here.

Don’t forget to split stitch the faces on before you sew the doll together!


Here’s a fab photo of the method by the wonderful Michelle, the owner of Modern Spool, from our last doll drive!

Thanks, and Happy Sewing!
