Pretty Cloth Doll PDF pattern


Miss Lucy Lou Cloth Doll PDF pattern
Do you have a special little girl to share this pretty cloth doll pdf pattern with?

Let me introduce you. Her name is Miss Lucy Lou, the name my very own special little girl picked out for her. She is dressed in her best floral dress and little cropped felt jacket ready to go to town.

Lucy Lou is a quick and easy cloth doll to make. Once you know a few tricks for making cloth dolls, the sky is the limit. The most important technique is the transferring of and sewing of the limbs. If you trace the limbs onto your fabric and then sew on the drawn line, the process is super easy. Another tip is to reduce your stitch length and choose a thread colour to match your fabric.This lightening of the stitches makes the seams stronger so that they withstand firm stuffing.

New Handcrafted Timber Sewing Accessories





My darling Dad has been busy again creating these amazing handcrafted timber sewing accessories for you. Most pieces are one off items. As you can see they are amazing. Each time I receive a collection from him I have to resist the temptation to keep them all myself...very selfish of me I know. But I just love everything that he makes.

It was my sweet daughter of 14 who reminded me that I needed to share her grandfather's talents with others are well, and she was right!

So with no more to be said, click here now to see what he has made for you. You won't be disappointed.

Warmly Lenna
