CQ - Make a Doll - INT

When I was a little girl, I used to love my dolls. I had all sorts of different dolls, which I know my Mum has tucked away somewhere in the attic waiting until perhaps I have a daughter one day. There are so many different techniques you can use to make dolls - knitted, crocheted, paper mache, felt, sewn, or even altered or upcycled. So for this swap, we will make a doll for our partner using whatever technique you like.

The specifications for the doll are pretty broad - you can make it large or small, although perhaps no smaller than 10cm (4in). It can be realistic or stylised, human, animal or otherwise, and it can be a toy or it can be ornamental.

He/she/it should have an outfit, but it can be removable or it can be an integral part of the doll.

The most important thing is you make the doll with love, care and the best of your crafting skills so that when your partner receives it, they are absolutely thrilled. I know everyone has different skill levels, so it doesn't need to be perfect - just as perfect as you are able to make it. This isn't a swap for someone who wants to throw something together in an hour or two. It will take some time so only sign up if you have the time to do it. I will give you plenty of time to make the doll so you shouldn't need to rush it.

I will be checking profiles for late swaps in particular.
