        So should they look away from, or toward one another?

        Now THAT is a valid design dilemma. If I were making them for myself, I'd probably have them looking towards each other.

        His missing eye-button-divot is deeper, for sure.

        That's actually a button, isn't it? Hard to see exactly. I think the right goat is missing his eye.

        Probably. Ladies' magazines of the period often had patterns for this type of embroidery.

        Look up Victorian Berlin wool work, which is closer to what we call needlepoint. You'll find other shoes - alarming or fabulous, depending on your taste.
