After seeing Angelina in my studio, so many people have requested a workshop to make their own fabric doll.
This workshop is suitable for beginners, all tuition will be provided.
In this workshop we will work together to make your own version of a fabric doll. There are two available dates, either Wednesday 16th October or Sunday 27th October. You can book at the links below:
There will be a template available to trace and follow, and the dress can either be painted on canvas like mine, or made from felt and fabric with embroidery applied. The design of the doll will be simple, with blanket stitch to fix together. There will be lots of creative ways to make accessories, you could knit a shawl and accessories can made from felt. All materials will be provided.
This workshop is longer than other workshops, and if you don't finish the project on the day there will be an option to finish it at home with the instructions provided, or to come back to the studio at a later date at a reduced price as you will already have the kit.
This workshop involves a few simple stitches, and I will guide you through the steps. It is also suitable for advanced stitchers as it is possible to be creative with the design of the doll and the embroidery.
