Fröhliche Puppen selbst gemacht

This book contains clear, easy-to-understand instructions on how to sew various fabric dolls yourself: from simple knot dolls to the now world-famous Waldorf doll. Additionally, there are numerous suggestions for clothing, headgear, and shoes. The many atmospheric photos immediately inspire you to create a beautiful, individual doll. For a child, the doll is often the most important toy - it is their loyal, beloved companion, stimulates their imagination, and shares in every joy and sorrow. Handmade dolls, crafted with love from natural materials, therefore hold a special significance. Freya Jaffke shows how to create such dolls and dress them in imaginative outfits. She first describes various small dolls for little ones and then thoroughly presents the well-designed jointed doll ("Waldorf doll"), which, with its soft, cuddly shape and understated facial expression, captures the hearts of children. With a newly developed stuffing technique, this doll can now be shaped even better and more durably. For the appropriate clothing, there are precise measurements and patterns, and the different sewing stitches are also explained and illustrated. A book for everyone who wants to make dolls themselves!.
