Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Toy

For: Unisex

Style: Whimsical, Hipster, Cute, Funky


Materials

Vintage fabrics, cotton prints, cotton denim fabric, Elastic, buttons, thread, acrylic eyes, acrylic paints

What was your inspiration?

A broken, headless doll body destined for the trash bin. It spoke to me and I knew it had yet another life in it :-)

I had a vision of a fun, funky fox dolly floating in my head for quite a while and just knew that's what I had to create.

What are you most proud of?

Turing a "lost cause" discarded toy into this delightful darling!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Have fun, have patience, and let the character ad personality of the doll develop naturally :-)
