Greetings, and Handmade Historical Dolls: Raggedy Ann based, more 3-D head
I've been a member of this community for a while, and though I've read a lot of posts, I haven't contributed anything yet, simply because there's so much I could have done.
I've been sewing since the age of 4, crocheting since 8, knitting since 13, and I also know how to tat, use a knitting spool, and embroider just about anything, in any style of stitching. About the only thing I don't do is plastic canvas, and that's only because I like embroidery more.
I'll be posting my favorite projects, and offering tutorials to anyone who wants to do likewise. I enjoy altering and combining patterns and thinking outside the box.
My first offering are two historically accurate dolls, based on one of my favorite fandoms. Full description and pictures here:
