Customer Reviews

I loved this book so much I bought one for me and one for my sister

The dolls are especially nice for cloth and the patterns could be used for any doll this size..........especially if you can tweak them for the exact doll.

Love At First Sight!

A beautiful and completely satisfying publication. I especially appreciate the small details that truly make these dolls "classic".

Beautiful handmade cloth dolls

I wanted to make a cloth doll that a child would be able to play with and love. I don't have much experience at that so I checked into instruction books. What made this one stand out to me was the picture on the cover. These dolls have such beautiful faces. This is definitely not a book for beginners. You need to have some experience at sewing, and being able to draw is a plus, as the facial features are drawn right on to the fabric. I found the instructions clear and fairly easy to follow. It took time and patience, but the doll turned out beautiful. I recommend this to anyone with a background in sewing. fiber arts, and/or general art.
