I have wanted to make the Siggy doll since I received the premiere issue of Soft Dolls and Animals in 1997.
Umm…yes…1997. I was going to make the doll for my daughter. Somehow, time has gotten away from me.
So, I have made two dolls…one for each granddaughter.
I think I lost my mind! I thought that it would be fun to alter the simple pattern a bit.
I have a new respect for doll makers!
I tried making bendable fingers…that was tough.
I tried making toes. That was tough.
Worst of all was the hair. Whatever was I thinking?! Hot glueing a bunch of tangled, curly hair was tremendously boring and tedious for me!
Oh nooooo…I couldn’t just buy a wig…or make one. I had to glue this stuff by individual strands.
Sometimes, I am an idiot.
These dolls have more hair than Cousin Itt!
I shall be making a dress outfit for each doll.
Should be a piece of cake.
