Vintage Cloth doll making a yahoo group is having a really awesome
challenge actually two options challenge..I have decided to do the
Presbyterian cloth doll challenge..It is really a fabulous pattern created by
Lucinda C. Durbin (Cinders)

I am making two this is the small one she is about 12 inches..
I am stuffing the second one now , she is 17 inches..
I haven't attached her legs yet because I 'm going to paint them first.
She is a challenge because every thing for me is a new learning experience!
A exciting experience I must say. I'm just loving the creating time with this dolls body.
Her I'm showing the gusset she has in her head. A side view.

Also attaching the arm was a new way for me to..I enjoyed the hand tiny stitches I used to attach the arms..This doll will diffidently be a keeper for me..Probably the second one too.. I'm making also..There is a feel and personality already about her..
I can actually say I'm in love with this little gal! already..
