Sounds like what you need is hand applique - you can either do needle turn and here is a great tute with pics

Hope it helps, your gingerbread man sounds cute. :-D
If it's embroidery, ignore me! Sorry, was posting at the same time! :lol:
It sounds like applique to me as well. Your answer is right on. If the hearts are very small, I am afraid that I would forget about the applique and embroider hearts with a satin stitch.
