As we sail into the last few weeks of the school holidays, the smalls are more and more into the craft thing. I got this idea from Rosa whose work I always find hugely inspiring.
These are super simple to make, just cut a half-oval shape out of a plain coloured fabric, use textile markers to create faces, bodies and hair.
Cut simple rectangles for arms and legs.
Pin arms and legs to the body - sew around the shape, leaving a smallish hole for stuffing
Accessorise in an overthetopfashion et voila!
The very last word in creative spaces - here! xx

These are totally & utterly gorgeous. Your smalls are just the most wonderful little people going around. Give them a giant smooch for me. xxx

Not only are the dolls adorable, but every time I see your posts, I want to miniaturise myself, and raid your wee girls' wardrobes! Such cute dresses!
love.
