My friend Geidy and I are making some of THE CUTEST dolls ever. The basic pattern is from
But, we have made adjustments, and improvements to fit our tastes and they are so stinkin' cute. Just you wait and see. Here is a tiny preview! And just know, this is only the beginning...they are a work in progress. I just couldn't wait til they were done to tell you about them.
Here are some hair designs. The top left is the original and all the rest are ones that I came up with. They are kinda funky. In a good way.
Here is our work space. Kindof. It extends into the living room floor, the coffee table and the couch. And the kitchen. I mean, my apartment is not big and therefore projects take up most of the space.
Here are the parts to one of the dolls. She has yet to get her legs stuffed, her body and head stuffed and to get arms. And to get a face. But, like I said, this is just the beginning.Geidy and I love, love, love these dolls. We are making several of them with different hair and skin colors.
Then as we were working, I mentioned that we could just use the body pattern and make different dresses that are interchangeable...kinda like a paper doll, but not paper.
I have all kinds of ideas for these little pretties.
Just you wait and see.
Let me just say that
I am never buying a barbie doll or a bratz doll for Eve or any of my future daughters.

I cant wait to see this project done! I saw the designer of Black Apple on Martha and those dolls are ADORABLE!!!! If I had a girl I would have totally made one too!
you go crafty queen!
Awesome Becca!!! So, now I have a speial request...will you make one for Ericka and one for Claire? They are adorable! We miss you!!!And I want you to see Claire in person, she is amazing.I love you Becs!
Please, can you I come watch you guys in action? I would LOVE to make one for Lilly!! They are so perfect!
Very cute. I agree with you on the whole Bratz doll. I mean c'mon, no one can really achieve lips that big, so what kind of message are we sending? What next, tweens getting botox?
That is so creative Becca. That is so cool that you have the talent to make your baby dolls. She will treasure them I am sure.
I can't agree more!!!! I am all for homemade toys, they are wonderful. I can't wait to see the finished product.
I can already tell that those dolls are adorable! You always have a fun project in the works it seems. Where do you find all your great ideas!?
I CAN"T wait to see the finished product. I agree with everyone else, you are VERY creative and talented!!!
I'm so jealous. I wish I was in FL. I would totally come over and do this with you.
Saw you on Nie's blog. I just had to comment for a few reasons... I love the name Eve. We thought about naming our daughter Eve but our son is named Eli and there isn't any other 3 letter "E" names so we just couldn't have any other kids if we did... ha ha. AND your dolls are ADORABLE!! I am very anti bratz and barbie (for too many reasons to list!). AND my hubby is a computer nerd too!
Long comment... sorry.
Blessings, KN
