Long-Legged Frog

The whole face is embroidered. Order: the eyes (black satin), then the white glints over them, then the nose and mouth, blush last. Mark the centres with pins first and compare with the picture. Bring thread ends out where a sewn-on piece will cover them, or bury them in the stuffing.

• Embroidered eyes (on the eye white) (2: one on each eye white; the left one is described, the right is its mirror): in black thread, a oval about 9 mm wide and 9 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 1, on the centre top line.
• Eye glint (on the eye white) (2: one on each eye white; the left one is described, the right is its mirror): in snow white thread over the embroidered eye, a oval about 2.6 mm wide and 2.6 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 1, on the centre top line, then moved 1.6 mm to the right and 2 mm up (looking at the toy's face).
• Embroidery in dark brown thread (on the head), straight stitches through: (between rounds 14 and 15, 3 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 15 and 16, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 16, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 16 and 17, on the centre front line ) → (in round 16, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (between rounds 15 and 16, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (between rounds 14 and 15, 3 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ).
