Ever since I first watched the Wizard of Oz, I have loved scarecrows (especially the ones who need brains!!) With that inspiration, I created this 23� topper. There are two separate snowflake appliques as well as a considerable assortment of smaller appliques. The straw cuffs (legs, arms, waist, and neck) can be stitched flat or you can use thread to achieve a 3-D look. The eyes are beaded as is the background. Pattern is suitable for an intermediate level “ although a determined advanced beginner might succeed if patient with the many appliques and stitches.
