Dynamic children sprites that look like their parent

Description
Cut From The Same Cloth (CFTSC) is a visual SMAPI mod that replaces the child sprites, so that they resemble their NPC parent. This is done dynamically, so if you have children with different NPCs, your children will look different.
This mod comes with 2 different styles for both boys and girls for each base game spouses. The style is chosen randomly when a child is born.
There is also support for seasonal sprite overlays, though Winter is only included by default.
Custom Sprites
All of the sprites are located in the mod folder. These can be edited if you wish. You can even make your own.
If you wish to make a new style for example Penny's children, you can find the sprites in Mods\CutFromTheSameCloth\assets\Penny
In this folder, you'll see the following sprite sheets:
You can edit these to your liking. The mod should use the edited version the next time the game loads the child's textures. If you choose to create an entirely new style, it should be named like one of the existing sprite sheets. Just change the style name in the file to whatever you wish. For example, if I created a "Curly" style for a boy toddler, I would name the image file "Toddler_Curly.png".
There are also 2 seasonal sprite sheets in the folder:
These sprite sheets are drawn on top of the base sprite sheet when you are in that season. The other season names are spring, summer, and fall.
Commands
The following commands can be used in the SMAPI console when you are in game and have at least 1 child:
This would change the sprite for a child named Billy to look like Emily
This would change the sprite for a child named Mary to use the Pigtails style for her current NPC parent

Commands
The following commands can be used in the SMAPI console when you are in game and have at least 1 child:
- parent <child_name> <NPC_name>
This would change the sprite for a child named Billy to look like Emily
- style <child_name> <style>
This would change the sprite for a child named Mary to use the Pigtails style for her current NPC parent
Compatibility
- CFTSC is fully multiplayer compatible
- If you create custom sprites, it is ideal that all players have the sprite files. Otherwise, other players will see the normal child sprites.
- Is fully compatible with PolyamorySweet, which allows you to marry multiple NPCs at once, and allows you to change the maximum number of children you can have.
- Modded NPCs will work as long as there is a folder for that NPC with appropriate sprite sheets
- Sophia and Victor from Stardew Valley Expanded are included- I will be adding more. I plan to release sprites for most if not all of the SVE and RSV marriable NPCs
