This kit is designed to be accessible for beginners while still being fun and engaging for more experienced crafters. I designed it to have 1cm seam allowances wherever possible to make it easy and less fiddly if you are new to doll making.

*Optional: Add your own buttons, trims, or embroidery to make it uniquely yours!

What else you will need:

• sewing machine (you can sew the doll by hand but it has been safety tested on a machine, so for best results please use a sewing machine if you can)!
• matching threads for the body, dress, and felt
• scissors
• heat-removable pen or chalk
• pointy stick or hemostat
• buttons and accessories
