Chloe's Wrapped Doll

My daughter wanted to make her daddy a doll for his birthday tomorrow. She kept asking for a wooden ball for the head but all I could find was a styrofoam ball. She wrapped the head in yarn, attached the face charm with pins and stuck a stick from the yard into the head. She wound yarn around the stick and pinned the hair. I helped her attach the hands and feet. She is very proud of her wrapped doll and I think it should be in an art museum. Won't daddy be surprised!

Obviously she has inherited your talent. It is lovely.

What a beautiful doll and she must be so pleased with it as will her Daddy when he gets it.
Don't you just love it when the children want to create.

You are incredibly prolific and the tone and content of your blog always inspires me. I would like to write to you off-blog and can't find your email address. Could you send it my way.
I wish you could take my tree of life workshop too..but if you would like I can send you the pattern and you can do it solo but I would help you along the way...It would be so much fun to see what magic you create!!! Let me know.
