The first 5 vegan friendly dolls are ready!


They are finally here! My first 5 vegan friendly doll!
Meet (from left to right) Mireille, Zareena, Toby, Elanie and Billie.
It was such a pleasure bringing them to life.
In the process I learned many new things as I was re learning the way I am making dolls.
The corn stuffing is lighter yet as firm as wool, therefore the dolls have a lighter feel. The cotton yarns will unravel if you cut them, so I made the wigs with a loop crochet stitch.
The clothes are the same as before, made from pre washed cotton fabrics, the shoes are from acrylic or cotton yarns and I found a great plant based crayon to blush the cheeks with.
