Learn various methods of doll making!, 29 May 2003
By Mrs. C - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sewing and Sculpting Dolls: Easy-to-make Dolls from Fabric (Paperback)
Wow! I had no idea one may create dolls in so many various ways! Eloise Piper teaches fabric, modeling paste, and polymer clay doll-making with patterns included in her book. She includes plain Amish children, fancy dolls, wig creating, sculpting facial features, decorating and dressing the doll. She even includes patterns for their tiny clothing! She gives embellishment ideas as well. Furthermore, Eloise has a very delightful style of writing that brings her dolls to life! I greatly enjoy authors like Eloise who present their art in a down-to-earth and humorous fashion. Not only does one enjoy creating the dolls and their adorable wardrobes, but one may count on a chuckle or two from Eloise's light-hearted humor.This book is a keeper for those who are looking for resources which address the multiple and various techniques of creating dolls.
Happy doll making!

wonderful next step for beginner doll maker..., 20 Sep 2001
By retroredux - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sewing and Sculpting Dolls: Easy-to-make Dolls from Fabric (Paperback)
I have the author's other book on dolls,which is also excellent. What the author shows is that using one simple to construct cloth doll body you can make literally thousands of different style dolls, by simply sewing/adding joints, lengthing patterns, changing outfit, hair, etc...beautiful photos of dolls for play or show; simple face designs take headache out of creating the doll.
Also shows how to "deconstruct" old clothes to make new clothes for the dolls-very imaginative. This book also goes into using clay-but with a beginner in mind. I definitely recommend!

sewing and sculpting dolls, 4 Jan 2002
By Susan "cameocat24" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sewing and Sculpting Dolls: Easy-to-make Dolls from Fabric (Paperback)
Just received this book today and I can't put it down! The book is the most complete how-to book I have ever seen. Eloise has put the book together from beginner to advanced with a lot of thought for the inexperienced doll-maker. Every aspect of doll-making is completely covered and I would highly recommend this book to anyone !
