This is my "Autumn Mommy" doll holding her
baby pumpkin.
GO EAGLES! I made a hat and
scarf from fleece fabric and stitch an eagles emblem on each. Don't they
look like real hats and scarves you can buy at a store in your size?
This is my "Miss Prim
Pumpkin Spice." I just love naming my handmade dolls.
Add ears to a doll and
you've got a bunny! You can also add wire in the ears to make them
stick up more. Paint or blush brush the center of the ear to make them
look more realistic.

During Christmas time I wanted to make
something special and different for my pastor and his family so I stitched
up some nativity dolls, Mary holding baby Jesus, and Joseph.
This is Meghan, my Irish
Nurse doll!
Early cloth doll
bodies were homemade with scraps of fabric. Nothing was thrown out
or wasted back then. Most were constructed with a front and a back
including legs. The arms were attached separately. One piece body dolls
were produced commercially in the early 1800's in many European countries.
By 1840 muslin bodies were being made that could sit. Click here for more
history of the muslin doll.
This nurse doll I made was
inspired by using patriotic colors.
