Today was setback day after all that progress. Necessary though. Must start over. Head was too big for body, so shrunk that down. Forgot my own steps on the body/limb construction so have to redo. hate wasting the fabric but learned from getting that far so in the end it is good.
The gorgeous wig is too small. Soooo back to having to order for her hair. I shrunk my pattern to a size that will work with the wig though so I think I will make up a doll to fit the wig it is so pretty.
Alas, nothing to show for a while but enjoying the process.
Hi Kim,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by my blog. I appreciate your kind comments and suggestions. I will try the embroidery hoop and hope for the best. I think that's the worst part of designing is the waste of fabric. I enjoy the designing part and the thoughts of possibilities.
I don't think many people realize how hard it is to design a fabric doll and all that goes with it. One has to have a good eye for proportion. It is so rewarding when it all comes together though.
You are just like me...if I find something that I absolutely love and it's too small, I will make the doll to fit the object.
Sounds like the wig is fabulous!!
Can't wait to see the new design!!
XOXO
