I wasn’t happy with the first smile I stitched on Claire’s face.
So I decided to experiment in Photoshop.
How can such a little bit of line and color say so much in an expression?

as you say an expression can make so much difference to the look of a face
Love it!
My mother is an oil painter; she's done some portraits and says it's very frustrating to see how barely a hair's breadth difference can turn a simper into a snarl – even when the face is eight inches high!
there is so much personality in each stitch!
Thanks Claudia!
Oh so true!!
my favorite the 3 o clock position~ Happy New Year Janet! Always so much fun to see what you & dollys have been up to!
Thanks Rachael. That was my daughter's favorite as well. I decided she was too child like for the character I had in mind for the casket door so she is being replaced! Poor baby. She'll probably show up in a different embroidery at a different time. Can't wait to see what new ideas you are talking about for the new year.
