Sew onto the head with the white thread



Ribbon
For the ribbon, I used this pattern. Attach your black thread as described below, then follow the bookmark pattern, alternating between black and white rows.

In black, starting 3 st left of the center of the nose, attach thread and ch 50 (or however long you want your paci chain to be).
Continue with bookmark pattern.


Loop
In the center of the end of the paci ribbon, attach black thread, make a chain until it's long enough to be able to go through a paci handle, and attach it in a loop to the paci ribbon.

Embroider eyes, a smile, a tuft of hair, and sew on the clip. :-)
