delightful dolls of all kinds!
I like to make dolls for my special needs grandchild. This book showed me how to combine my enjoyment of both sewing and polymer clay crafting for really great results. The dolls are always unique, even if I use the same pattern. It is so easy to customize each for a unique character. This book was definitely a great addition to my craft library.
EXCELLENT BOOK!!
After buying Ms Piper's Batik book, I found she had written this wonderful book on dolls. I gave it to all my nieces for Christmas and I got so many thanks. Everyone loved this book!! The processes outlined are so creative, not copy-cat. The photographs are glorious. My family is now planning a reunion to visit the Kansas City Doll and Miniature museum so we can see this amazing woman's work.
Learn various methods of doll making!
Wow! I had no idea one may create dolls in so many various ways! Eloise Piper teaches fabric, modeling paste, and polymer clay doll-making with patterns included in her book. She includes plain Amish children, fancy dolls, wig creating, sculpting facial features, decorating and dressing the doll. She even includes patterns for their tiny clothing! She gives embellishment ideas as well. Furthermore, Eloise has a very delightful style of writing that brings her dolls to life! I greatly enjoy authors like Eloise who present their art in a down-to-earth and humorous fashion. Not only does one enjoy creating the dolls and their adorable wardrobes, but one may count on a chuckle or two from Eloise's light-hearted humor.This book is a keeper for those who are looking for resources which address the multiple and various techniques of creating dolls. Happy doll making!
