You would think that something of a someone of this porportions, that I would have made some kind of design sheet.
Blueprints of sorts. BUT... but...
But you'll be wrong.
Maybe I'll make a drawing of sorts to go along with this doll here...
ANYWAYS.
Started off with the head, a core of polyester and wrapped with ununiform pinks.
The neck was just a scrap piece hanging off in which to have the body tappered on. also made of scrap pieces.

poking in some star shapes beforehand.
The middle part of the torso had the innards exposed so I decided to add a pocket.
The pocket can hold an acorn.
The hat came at the very end. No photo of it, but I had to shape it into the curve to hold to body up.
She can't really stand up, and sitting on a shelf needs keen placement.
