While the concept is good, the pictures on the front didn't really depict the kind of doll that I was interested in. So I altered the feet came up with this:
A naked doll isn't that much fun to play with, however. So dug out my fabric scrap pile and got to work on creating a wardrobe. This part was too much fun:
 | |
| Shorts, Wrap Top with snap closure & a replica of my ubiquitous infinity scarf. |
 |
| Striped boatneck shirt that I wish I had in my size. |
 |
| Wrap dress, gray leggings and some green leather shoes. |
 |
| Gray dress with a pearl buckle (and a risque neckline). |
 |
| Cowlish-neck sweater with gray flannel pants and some kicky blue leather shoes. |
 |
| Rainjacket! |
 |
| Black boatneck shirt and leather belt paired with a corduroy skirt. |
 |
| Summer dress, leather belt, infinity scarf and leather shoes |
The doll's hair is a "wig" (it's removable and repositionable) and was crocheted out of yarn. Everything was made out of scraps (the beauty of working on such a small scale). This doll would be hard for smaller kids to play with though because it's about the size of a Barbie. My next venture will be to scale the doll up to about 18". I also hope to make additional changes to the arm placement, leg attachment and head shape.
