| Face in detail |
I've used the book I've mentioned before 'Creative Cloth Doll Collection' by Patti Medaris Culea and mixed up a couple of patterns. One tip Patti gives is to cut out the larger pieces with pinking shears - that way yo don't have to clip the curves before sewing. My doll's going to have jointed legs, using big wooden beads. Another first, but I'm looking forward to the challenge.
Will post more pics as she progresses - I'm trying to finish her before Christmas. As well as making several Christmas presents - it'll be interesting to see how it all goes!
See what other people are up to on the creative front ....

I've never seen a doll in progress. :) It's interesting to see how she comes together. :)
WOW - she is coming along really really well. (... but yes it is a bit freaky seeing her there in pieces!)
