Baby Doll

Make the baby’s head with a smaller bead, and shorter chenille wires than for adult and children dolls. Make the body in the same way as the big dolls.

Cut a diaper out of felt and glue to the body. See the shape in the photo on the left. Lay the doll on the diaper, pull the middle part between the legs, then glue both side points in the middle.

If the ends of the arms and legs are sharp, bend the tip of the wire back on itself. Use pliers to bend the bottom of the legs forward into feet.

Use pliers to bend the knees.

Use pliers to bend elbows.

Lay the baby on a small rectangle of fabric. These  cheap dishcloths are good for this because it doesn’t ravel, and is not as bulky as felt.

Fold the top corners of the cloth next to the head.

Fold the bottom of the cloth up over the legs.

Fold one side over the baby. Fold the other side over the first.

Cut a strip of cloth. Lay the baby on the strip, tie in the front, then tuck the ends in the back.

Draw a face on the bead.
