What stitches do you use to attach the limbs and head to the body? It's a lovely pattern. I just got a new sewing machine and want to try it out.

Runo said...

Used ladder stitches at the head. About limbs I don't know the name of stitch.

Hi Runo. I absolutely adore your doll! Do I have to stitch the neck of the doll closed before attaching the head to it?

Runo said...

You can attach the opened neck to the head.
