  • Learning to make Natural Fiber Art Dolls is incredibly fun and a great way to exercise many different crafting techniques, from sewing, knitting, wig making, shoe making, stuffing, pattern design, wool sculpting and more. In this video I hope to give you a good definition so you can better decide which is the style you are after and a list of teachers and resources so you can get started. I hope this video is helpful to you on your making journey.

    So sweet of you to mention me ❤ i think we all have our own style of making and therefore teaching in dollmaking. And that makes it just so much fun ❤️ For me finding new techniques and developing new skills makes dollmaking an ongoing adventure ❤️

      So true! each dollmaker has her own way of doing things, and then of teaching. I too love dollmaking with all my heart.

    I have experience making more detailed cloth dolls that are for keepsake purposes. Your dolls are beautiful. I have the book you were glancing through at the beginning of the video. I have tried my hand at making shoes & a couple of the outfits. Since I enjoy doing petit point, I find doing detailed work relaxing. I'm interested in going forward & doing more intricate type dolls. Thank you for the cautions as well as the inspiration.

    • @Figandme
      @Figandme  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I usually put a lot of informations with links on the description of my videos. I do have a shop but I normally don't sell my dolls via the shop. I sell them via my blog. If you want to know more how I go about selling my work, some rough idea on pricing and styles, you are very welcome to visit this page: www.figandme.com/faq
      Thank you for loving my dolls!

      Hola Sofia. Aqui en este canal hay una serie de videos llamada "Hansel y Gretel". Esa serie gratuita te va a enseñar como hacer muñecas. Luego puedes comprar cualquiera de mis patrones en Etsy, para que aprendas mas tecnicas y conocimiento. Hacer muñecas como las mias toma mucho tiempo de dedicacion, paciencia y continua exploracion del arte. Un abrazo muy fuerte a Mexico desde Canada.

      There are quite a few suppliers in Europe who should be able to ship to you as well as in Australia.

    I would love to make a doll. But I am vegan and I do not believe in using products derived from animals. I wonder what I could use instead?

    • @Figandme
      @Figandme  ปีที่แล้ว

      Assuming you want to use materials derived from natural sources, because otherwise you could use everything synthetic, there are yarns made of cotton, linen, bamboo (not very good results for hair though...) as well as stuffing made from plants: cotton, kapok, corn fiber and others. I have zero experience using any of those so I can't tell you how they will behave trying to use them for dolls, if they could be sculpted, etc. Best of luck as you research, experiment widely and find the best materials for your doll making journey.
