Doll Needs a Place to Stay

 Since every doll needs a place to stay, I made Tammy a place, based on an ad I saw on FB, something similar, but completely different. I used light plastic canvas and heavy duck fabric to help it maintain it's shape and stand up. It has several 'doors' in the closet, with pockets for clothes. It's not perfect, but I figure if it just gets tossed into a box, it's fine for that, and if on the other hand, it's loved, I can always make an upgrade.

Something Completely Different - A Doll

I saw a completely cute doll and 'house' and thought, I can do that, and maybe better than the original. So I set out to do just that. I'm creating a small doll, home and some clothes. Here's how it's going:


Made a pattern and cut it out

Started putting the pieces together


And stuffing as I go

Put her together with hand stitching only
