Thanks Duke, I made the title after only writing the first stanza - I thought the mask represented terror and whimsy well, as well as the childs smile and the mothers scowl. I agree that for the poem as a whole, I could come up with something better, I will think on it.
I know nothing about stitching/embroidery, so I could probably improve that part too by looking into how to accurately describe it, although the idea for the mask was really more abstract than something real - sort of a silly gag like you would see in a cartoon. I may look into that a bit more.
