smiley face
With black thread and a tapestry needle, sew the smile between rows 2 and 3. First, make a small horizontal stitch in st 1 of the row, then sew running stitches around the circle to the opposite corner, mirroring the position to judge where to finish the point. Make another horizontal st at this end.
