NEW PROJECT
I have been wanting to make a doll but didn't know how so I recently decided I would try making my first doll. This is the result. It has been fun to learn a new skill and it is a fairly quick and easy project that I think most can do.
I had to learn how to make the body ,clothes ,hair ,face, shoes everything top to bottom . It has taken me about three weeks to learn what to do about putting together the doll. its arms bend and the purse can be opened and closed. Pintrist is a wonderful resource to learn doll making
My friend made the stand from scrap wood and I stained and varnished it.
I wanted my doll to stand so I have attached her to the dowel with Velcro.
She was made from small pieces of leftover fabric I had on hand . The fabric is cotton.
I crocheted her head band and put tiny beads on the ends.
I'm still doing other projects but I wanted to take a break and learn a new skill . The shop I sale in didn't have any dolls so I'm going to make these dolls to sale
She will be going up for sale this week and I'm starting a new doll.
