Default Movie Stars Eyes Patterns

There used to be a designer who created charts of movie stars' eyes.
Does anyone remember who it was? Are they still in business?

TIA.

recognize who was who ???

Mirjam,

The charts were incredible, and it was easy to tell who the person
was. A friend of mine did Lucille Ball's eyes, it was gorgeous!

take care, Linda D. in B.C., Canada

Back in the 1930's in the UK, the height of the sports season were the
Test cricket matches versus Australia. The captain of the Australian
team was Donald Bradman. Someone took a picture of his eyes and pasted it
onto an envelope, put a postage stamp on it, and threw it into a mail box.
The UK Post Office delivered the letter!!. By the way, eyes seem to be a
good source of pictures for computer generated patterns. The patterns
produced seem to be nice to stitch.

Wasn't there a similar story about an England cricketer (whose name
I've now forgotten) chosen to go on an Ashes tour? He performed very
poorly, and an infuriated Yorkshireman sent an envelope with the
player's photo on it. Royal Mail delivered it, of course, and when he
opened it to find a single sentence, "If you receive this letter, the
postman thinks more of you than I do."

Not that it is really relevant to patterns of eyes, but I thought it
made a follow-up cricket story!

Shanti.

I remember these patterns, but don't remember who did them.
But googling I found that there is a UK band named the Cross Stitched
Eyes.
Hmmm.

Second try.

It was Terrence of Dimples Designs. Look on the Hoffman site. Legends
of the Silver Screen.
