I've been looking for dolls to make to use instead of American Girl dolls (because AG is getting rid of the good dolls -- most of the Historical Characters and renaming it BeForever) These are prefect for me because they are so old-fashioned and have the embroidered flowers. I will definitely make these.<br /><br />~ Azure Azurenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647790914647612650.post-89618517862649806832013-02-12T22:03:49.252-05:002013-02-12T22:03:49.252-05:00Here are some cloth doll patterns you might be int...Here are some cloth doll patterns you might be interested in... <br /><br />http://www.teresecato.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647790914647612650.post-4802352893582767002013-02-08T11:37:18.404-05:002013-02-08T11:37:18.404-05:00Hi Beth,

You don't want to soak the fabric, but by damping it you will find that the wrinkles that usually form when stuffing a fabric doll will be much reduced. I think the damp cloth stretches a bit more, allowing the stuffing to 'take' better.<br /><br />BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174223079054928870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647790914647612650.post-29013808432935713852013-02-08T11:11:27.952-05:002013-02-08T11:11:27.952-05:00Hi, When you say you mist the material, are you me...Hi, When you say you mist the material, are you meaning the fabric or the fill?
