I made this sweet doll from this book, Embroidered Treasures for Children. It was fun to do but it was not "the quickest and simplest ragdoll you may ever make" as the book says. Her hair is all done in split stitch and it took me forever to do but it was good practice anyway.
There's a whole lot of other cute projects too. I've started the pirate finger puppets but they've been put on the backburner for now. The photographs are gorgeous and the instructions pretty simple. The only discrepancy I've found is that they call for about half the amount of threads to use than what I found to be necessary. For example, the doll's hair called for using 4 strands when I found that six worked much better and the same with the pirates, so you might experiment with that if you get the book.
****I'll be adding some new pincushions to the shop later this week - new designs that I'm really excited about - so be sure to check back again****
