This project is perfect for people who have a basic understanding of how to sew. (Not a true "beginner" as in "never-have-seen-a-sewing-machine-before" necessarily, but you don't need much sewing experience, either. Alternatively, you can hand sew your doll, but you need a basic understanding of how to do this as well.)

You will also learn the basic of my own style of embroidery in this tutorial.

I have sold many of these tutorials and everyone loves them. It's perfect to make personalized gifts and use up fabric scraps or use recycled clothing!
