Pumpkin Patch Doll

I recently finished a swap with @Myruka :blush:
I made this:


I had a lot of fun making her this doll. :purple_heart: She’s a button jointed doll and her arms and legs move.

I’m not very familiar with needle felting but I gave it a go for her hair.


I also worked with a very difficult fabric. I usually only work with felt or cotton.

I made the embroidery pattern myself after looking at a doll on Myruka’s Pinterest.


My favorite way to do embroidery is by using tissue paper. :blush:

I’m not super happy with the mask, but I really wanted to make one.

@Tapestry thank you. :joy: Funnily enough the last time I did needle felting was also for doll hair.

@curiousfae thank you! The mask is pretty messy on the other side. I intended to hot glue plain felt to hide the embroidery, but it made it too thick.

@madebyBeaG thank you. :blush:

@marionberries awww thank you. :purple_heart: Lay on that butter :joy:

Thank you. :purple_heart:

I’m glad you like the embroidery. There’s so many different ways to embroider faces. I am not skilled at a lot of embroidery techniques so I tend to keep it simple. :blush:
