Golden Eyes

This time I couldn't resist - I had to try it myself. After seeing all those lovely ladies in stumpwork I wanted to do one right away. First thought this morningg - today I'm going to create a stumpwork face. Here's what I ended up with:
Golden Eyes

She's a little pale, next time I'll use a darker fabric for the face. Buttonhole, drizzle stitch, bullion knots and portuguese border stitch and a little fancy yarn for the hair. The size is 10x8 cm.
Maybe she needs a sister?
