[NFB-Krafters-Korner] help needed with a project please

[Kathryn Johnson]

Hi  Debbie,  
You could sew buttons on in a half circle to make  a smile. 
Your Teddy Bears sounds so cute. Did
you cut out your own pattern for the Bear?  Did you have to attach  the arms and legs separately? I have Knitted A Teddy Bear before and I would like to make more using a simple pattern with the arms and  legs attached. 
What lucky kids to get your box. 
Happy Creating!
Kathryn

You could also take a contrasting thread and sew a small running stitch in a
smile right onto the fabric.

What are the faces made of?  Are they furry, or smooth?  If they're smooth,
you could crochet a few chain stitches and sew them on in a smiley shape.  
Or, in either case, you could cut a smile out of a bit of felt and sew that
on.  Felt would work OK for a nose, too.  Just sew them on good so a little
kid doesn't pull them off and try to eat them.

Hi,
I hope this request is an appropriate one to send to the list. I certainly
do not want to do anything that would be considered inappropriate.  I have
sewn some teddy bears to go in the operation Christmas child boxes. I have
them all done except the face and stuffing. The bears are 6 inches tall. I
was wondering if I could get    some suggestions on what I might use for
their mouths? I thought about using sequence, but they are just a little to
small for my hands to use any more. I am sewing a smiley face shank button
on the chest where the heart would be. thanks in advance for any
suggestions. 
 
Debbie K.
