I redid the first ones eyes. Made them darker
I redid the lipstick in 2nd ladies hand. I think it looks better. I just wish their skin was darker. i don't want to tear it out cuz it'll leave holes

They are so cute! You did a great job!

Maybe you could a darker shade of brown on the skin -- the shade that you used in the pillow the girl is sitting on would be good I think. Just a suggestion....

The brown is actually darker then it shows. I think I found a darker shade. I'll redo sections at a time

Its about half way done and I like it so much more. Just redoing skin areas. I don;t wanna do all this hard work to find after I'm done it don't look right. I only have 2 ladies done, so might as well fix them now

What an adorable pattern. If it were me I would use those fabric crayons to give the bodies in particular a little color. Kind of like a watercolor wash. I have several Handquilted white on white pieces I intend to tint. Pretend you are giving them makeup like rouge etc.
