Hello friends of @ read.cash, something that I love and enjoy is making crafts and that is why today I want to share with you how to make a beautiful doll with scraps of fabric, this doll is very easy, fast and simple to make, plus the we can make the size we want and we can use it to decorate a shirt, towels, rugs among others.

The most striking thing about this doll are the sleeves and hats due to their flower-shaped shape. So I invite you to follow this step by step.

Materials:

I made this doll in an ideal size to decorate a flannel. There were very few materials that I used and most of these I had at home:

  • 1 Piece of fabric size: 10 cm x 10 cm.

  • Embroidered strap med. 10 cm long.

  • Large two-hole button

  • White satin ribbon ½ cm wide

  • Scissors

  • Needles

  • Thread

Making:

We cut a large round for the hat and two small ones for the sleeves. For the suit we cut a piece of fabric 10 cm wide x 10 cm long and for the arms, I cut 10 cm of the ribbon and tied a knot in the center.

Then to make the hat and the sleeves we fold in 1/2 cm of fabric and we cook along the edge, then we pull the thread and gather until they are united in the center, we do to secure the seam.

To make the dress we fold in 1/2 cm of the seam allowance on each side of the fabric. Then we sew the embroidered strip ribbon at the bottom of the suit. And on the top of the dress we sew, gather the thread and adjust the seam very well.

To make the face, we sew the button centering it on the piece of the hat. To simulate eyes we sew a tiny black bead into each hole of the button. For the mouth I used a tiny strand of red thread, we can also do this with permanent marker.

Once we have all the pieces of the doll ready with small and delicate stitches, we join the dress with the hat, then we put a green bow to complement the dress. I placed the ribbon with the knot in the center that simulate the arms and we sewed them on both sides of the dress.

Thus we culminate with the making of this cute cloth doll. As you can see it is very cute and decorative.

Thanks for visiting my post.
