Pillowcase Dolls

Dec 03, 2011 23:15

I have always wanted to make dolls from vintage pillowcases,
but they are hard to find.
Luckily I found 3 at SAFF last year.
I finally got around to making the dolls and had so much fun dressing them.

How old are your granddaughters that are getting these dolls?
They are very nice dolls, Great grandma!

Do you make these dolls for sale? Or do you know someone who does make them? Thank you. These are absolutely beautiful!

No, I don't make these to sell. It took a lot of time and trial and error to get the doilies to work too. It was a labor of love for my granddaughters.

Do you have a suggestion where I could find a pattern for pillowcase dolls?

I bought the pattern on Ebay (I think). I googled pillow case dolls and found it. The dolls are a pretty simple pancake doll. You can purchase a kit that includes a pillow case but you have to embroider it and I wanted to use some old pillow cases I had. I hope this helps.
