Creating and Crafting Dolls by Eloise Piper and Mary Dilligan is a colorful and stunning doll making book.
The authors teach how to make basic doll bodies using templates in various sizes, and have included patterns for their clothes and accessories.
There are 14 pages of photographs of variations of finished dolls, supplemented with line drawings, which provide a starting point for your own inspirations.
Books like this are guides to spark imagination - tools and ideas presented and then it is up to the crafter to make their own individual projects.
I have a lot of fun looking through crafting books and the authors provide much inspiration in this volume. And the nice thing about making your own doll is that it is really and truly YOURS!
You can make a doll for yourself or for gift-giving to your loved ones.
Highly recommended!
