Pattern Correction & Tips

  • The face panel should be 9 rows, not 12 as initially stated.
  • Use tight, even stitches for all pieces, especially face and helmet, for a polished look.
  • Be careful threading and securing the wire for antennas so it cannot poke out.
  • For best results, plan the face details with pins before stitching.
  • Use a felting needle or invisible thread for very neat embroideries if preferred.
