Product Description
A guide to creating Salley Mavor's charming, bendable "Wee Folk" fairies and dolls. There are 18 wee folk projects featuring dolls, pins, purses, chequebook and cell phone covers, and more. No sewing machine is required. Techniques include applique embroidery, thread wrapping, and painting - and it should be easy to add buttons, beads, natural materials, and "found objects" for extra embellishment. There are concise directions and how-to illustrations. The guide should be suitable for doll makers and crafters of every skill level.

This book is beautifully printed and photographed. The projects are inspiring and can be easily adapted to your own ideas and the purses beautiful for young girls.
The instructions are generally excellent although some of the clothing patterns for the smaller dolls are absent an exact size picture of the item provides a perfect template.

The ideas in this book are just fantastic and with a little practice the techniques are easy to master. The only problem is buying the resources she uses in the book for the wee folk, plants dyed felt is available if you know where to look, the acorn caps you can get sent from the US or you can go to Kew gardens to get your own. But I just love making the wee folk and you must look at her website for more ideas.

I absolutely love this book! The photos of the wee folk in different settings are stunning. The projects are all really lovely, well explained and simple enough even for beginners (although getting a good finish on the wee folks' arms and legs takes a bit of practice!). I especially like the project shown on the front cover, which is explained step-by-step. Truly inspirational and a must-have if you enjoy working with felt.
