1.0 out of 5 stars
A major disappointment,
By A Customer
This review is from: Teach Yourself Dollmaking: Simple Techniques and Patterns for Dolls and Doll Clothes (Teach Yourself Series) (Paperback)
Although some of the techniques of cloth doll making are reasonably well set out, overall I was very disappointed with this book. I appreciate that the book aims to deal with simple techniques, but nonetheless the featured dolls are crudely made and mostly ugly. The number and variety of dolls is very limited too. I would have liked to see many more ideas for personalising the dolls.

Fabulous for beginners,
By A Customer
This review is from: Teach Yourself Dollmaking: Simple Techniques and Patterns for Dolls and Doll Clothes (Teach Yourself Series) (Paperback)
This book is a godsend to those who want to learn about cloth dollmaking. Each step of making a doll, from basic sewing, to making the face or hair, to choosing fabrics and making clothing is covered in great detail. There are also patterns included for several dolls, each slightly more advanced than the one before it. The patterns cover several types of dolls - simple pancake dolls, a baby and 2 toddler dolls, and fantasy type dolls. It's definitely worth owning, even if you are an experienced dollmaker.

A wonderful place to start making dolls!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Teach Yourself Dollmaking: Simple Techniques and Patterns for Dolls and Doll Clothes (Teach Yourself Series) (Paperback)
This book is a wonderful place to start to learn how to make soft dolls. The patterns and instructions are well written and easy to follow. After following the author's patterns, new ideas were easy to incorporate. I have made angels and dolls for all of my family. Every Christmas, an angel inspired by this book looks down from eight different trees. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to start making cloth dolls.
