I just love this craft. It's so cute.
Materials:
Print fabric 3 1/2" by 2 1/4"
Print fabric 2 1/4" square
Muslin 3 1/2" by 2 1/4"
Muslin 2 1/4" square
Thread to match print
2 pieces of 3/8" wide ribbon cut 3" long
2 pieces of 3/8" wide ribbon cut 5" long
1 shank type button 1" in diameter (pink or flesh colored)
Small amount of doll hair
White craft glue
Scissors
Sewing machine
Instructions:
Place the 2 1/4" piece of print right sides together with the 2 1/4" piece of muslin and sew around leaving an opening to turn. Use a 1/4" seam allowance. Clip the corners and turn the piece right sides out and press.
Repeat this step with the 3 1/2" by 2 1/4" print and muslin pieces.
Line the bottom of the smaller piece with the bottom of the larger Muslin sides together. Tuck in one 2 1/2" piece of ribbon on each side for the arms and the 2 pieces of 3 1/2" ribbon at the bottom for legs. Sew around the three matched sides leaving the doll open at the top. Make a single knot in the end of each ribbon to represent the dolls hand and feet.
Fold the top edge of the longer piece down and press. Sew the button centered on the flap (see picture) and add the features. Glue some hair on your doll and allow to dry.
Tuck a tea bag into the pocket and she is ready to go.
