M&M BROWN OR CHOCOLATE


This pattern continues the set of M&M characters.  This is the pattern for M&M Brown or Chocolate.  Brown to the Chocolate M&M.  M&M Brown is one of two female M&M characters, the other is Green.  This series started with making M&M Red for a co-worker.  Of course, when my daughter, Amy, saw the M&M Red I was making for him, I had no choice but make the rest of the six characters.  Those patterns are coming soon.

As far as the instructions for the backstitching of the face, I can only tell you to use the picture above as a reference.

  1. I just posted a pattern for her face along with the others. I am sorry it took so long to get these posted. I was having some issues with my computer.
