She's adorable!! I love the rick rack hair! I don't have a 6" chick with me to measure, I believe the beaks, 2 nested to look like an open beak, were maybe 2 inch squares to start with. The tail squares were about 3-1/2" or so. Sorry I can't be more specific you'll just have to play around until she looks good. But that's the fun part, you can't make them wrong, just make them your way. Have fun!
Looking at your picture again I usually put the beak seam down but I think I like your way better!
