Lola

I've just finished making a rag-doll - her name is Lola, she lives on a strawberry farm and is a bit of a tom boy. I found a pattern in an issue of a British Woman's Weekly craft special, which I adapted somewhat.  I would love to be able to create a doll as gorgeous as those made by Goodby Blue Monday.

 

She has sequin eyes and a bow in her hair ...

 And a little strawberry on her shorts. 

She stands about 40cm tall.  The outfit was a bit of a struggle - never again will I put bias binding on something as fiddly as her little tunic! If I make another one I'll give her a bigger head and put a dress on her.

Here is the original doll from the magazine:
