The doll's dress is a miniature version of the dress she wore for her costume, and she even has matching white tights and black leather shoes.


And with the blonde pigtails, blue eyes and tiny upturned nose this doll is a tiny little Em :)

To make the doll, I started with my stuffed fox pattern...who actually doesn't make a half bad wicked wolf. Then I made the body and head a bit skinnier and the legs and arms longer and skinnier (and obviously eliminated the ears and tail...and added a dress)

I made the hair out eyes out of a wool blend felt and hand embroidered the face details.

This little doll took me almost 5 hours to sew, but part of that was working out the pattern and sewing a muslin doll. She is so worth all the time and effort though, both Em and I love her :)

As soon as I finished her brother asked me "are you making superman next?"

Laughing about the three tries on the hood! The same thing happened when we were making a raincoat for a stuffed bear...that head was huge!
ReplyDeleteYes! I couldn't believe how far off I was on the first try, lucky I had lots of fabric ;)
DeleteSO cute! What an amazing present for your little girl! I always hope that as my kids grow they'll remember some of the special things I made for them and just KNOW that they are loved.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I hope this doll is one she treasures for years! It may have to get put up on her shelf a bit, she is still pretty rough on toys!
Deleteoh wow, this looks so cute.
