a stab at hand sewing dolls

I usually stick to crocheting amigurumi creaures and things, but I've had the itch to try something different. I've been sewing longer than I've been crocheting, but I fell into the scene and felt I should keep going with it. It's not that I am abandoning crochet, just exploring other options and skills.

So here we have a prototype for a doll that I designed. I hand stiched the whole thing and I think for the next one I might try to machine sew as much as possible with the same pattern. I've taken to calling her Goldie after Goldielocks. There will be bears as I continue through my journey but they might not be in the forms that you might think.

Anyway, you can let me know what you think over at my blog.

Thanks!
Jen
