A happy snowman face cushion: a blue hat with a light-blue band and an embroidered snowflake, a white face with coal eyes, a carrot nose and a dotted smile, plus a buttoned closure on the back for the pillow insert. About 35 x 35 cm – winter cheer for the sofa, bed or window seat, and a lovely handmade gift. It pairs perfectly with the Santa pillow (363).
An easy pattern by Svetlana Zabelina with step-by-step photos, explanations of every stitch and an appendix with illustrated guides for beginners. A print-friendly version without pictures is included.
