Yup we all have them once in a while! We are in the middle of a house renovation and getting to my sewing machine is a task!!! And as I am working on some dolls at the moe … I thought I’d have a day off and try out a new pattern I have been tinkering with ……
Oh my goodness… even my daughter is terrified of her!!!! I made her?!!! How did that happen? Where did she come from (out of space if you ask me!) What’s up with her bandy legs? And her hair looks like a helmet!
This was an official Dolly Craft Fail!!!!
However my mini ‘print your own’ dolly pattern (although I used fabric marker pens to get a quick size and shape idea sewn up) has come out wonderfully! Yay!!
And I also got to sew on one of my fab new home made labels! Hooray!
So not a complete waste of a week!

Why not pop over to Kootoyoo to see other creative spaces :)
Take Care and Happy Crafting!




Bummer about the doll not working out, that photo with your girl is quite funny though. I love your print your own dolly pattern, she is very cute. And yay for getting to use your label :)
ReplyDeleteOh I don't know about craft fail. I quite like her! She would look awesome with one of C's little baby dresses on. Loving the paperdoll turned plushy too. She has turned out great!!
ReplyDeleteThe mini is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI liked her hair until i read what you put!
ReplyDeleteI've been there with the helmet heads too!
Gorgeous little plush doll, live the vintage look she has.x
Lovin' the mini success. I can imagine a veritable family of mini's with maximum portability (stuffed in kid pockets) factored in...
ReplyDeleteLol! Her legs are my favorite!... and the helmet hair ;)
ReplyDeletewhat r u talking about fail? it happens..dont worry. i used to have a big bear about that size and i lived him.. and still have it today. doesn't look huge anymore tho.. hehe
ReplyDeleteYour mini is just too cute...I think with a little styling the big kid can find happier times :)
ReplyDeleteHehe--cute pic--your daughter is a little sweetie! Love that mini doll! :)
ReplyDeleteSarah - thanks for the laugh this morning! the thought blurbs in the photo are hilarious! Nice to know even amazing talented folks like you make a boo boo once in awhile - although, I wouldn't consider her a failure! Love the mini - she's darling : )
ReplyDeleteLOVE the mini!
ReplyDeleteWow.
Love.
Aww, I think she's cute! :) I'm linking up over at http://craftfail.com - hope that's okay!
ReplyDeleteOops, wrong picture. I swapped pictures out (and cropped your adorable daughter out because I want to make sure you have complete control of your sweetie's image. :)
