Hello,
Just wanted to share a really simple quick and easy doll that I've just made. I've called her Little Bedtime Dolly to go nicely alongside my Little Cloth Dollys. I'd seem a few similar to it online and some people are selling the pattern on Etsy but I thought I'd just go for it and cut it out of fabric.
For the face I used the same pattern piece I use for Little Cloth Dolly and the same with the hair, I cut the main hair outline then always freehand the rest so I get different hairstyles all the time. Then for the body I cut 2 egg shaped pieces. If you imagine an egg with the top missing. I cut 1 slightly larger, which was going to be the front piece, the leaves enough spare fabric to gather it as you sew to make it look like a blanket.
I then simply sewed it all together, embroider a face and stuffed it. I think it looks really good and would make a nice gift for a smaller child that wasn't that fussed with dolls clothes.
I've listed her in my Etsy shop for just £10 which I think it a great price. I always like to price my items reasonably and I hope i get it right!
