An Awesome Dollmaking CD

Now available for purchase from Etsy  is this truly awesome dollmaking CD by Victoria DiPietro!   Through this CD Victoria will teach you how to create your own Portrait Style doll with a beautifully sculpted face of your design, and wonderfully articulated body of craft velour or woven cotton.  In addition, there are several techniques for wigging your doll, one of which yours truly has provided :-)

In Victoria's words:  "I can't believe it, my friend!  The CD is finished :-)    196 pages, 426 photos and drawings between us.  Patterns and mapping guide templates aren't part of the total count."  This is an incredibly complete instruction set for creating a personal work of art.

This CD focuses on creating the doll itself; the sculpted face and beautifully articulated body.  A second CD, already in the works, will provide an extensive wardrobe of cloth and crochet to clothe your doll.

There are so many techniques that are described in great detail in this CD; information to inform and expand any dollmaker's repertoire of skills.

A doll created for adult play, as an heirloom for a loved one, or as a journey of exploration into the wonderful world of dollmaking; this CD is your passport.
