Simple Felt Doll Pattern for Beginners
Simplicity that wins you over. A dark bob with a bow, a navy dress with red buttons and little red shoes give her an adorable kawaii look. An ideal first pattern, because the result is so impressive.
What the finished toy looks like
A girl with a dark bob, a little bow and a white headband, in a blue dress with red buttons and a pocket. She has white sleeves and red shoes. A simple, very sweet pattern that's great for beginners.
What you'll need
- Felt sheets in the colours shown in the photo (fabric, craft foam or coloured paper work too)
- Embroidery thread and a needle, or fabric glue if you'd rather not sew
- Small, sharp scissors
- A little toy stuffing for a softer finish (optional)
- Beads or buttons for details, if you like
How the templates work
The templates for Girl with Bob and Blue Dress are printed in Volume 5, ready to cut out of the book. There is no need for a photocopier or printer. Every pattern is printed twice, so you can cut one set of templates and keep the other for later, or fix a mistake without starting over.
Inside you'll also find a photo of the finished toy and step-by-step instructions you can follow even if you have never sewn before.
