Basic Body
I am currently making a stump doll. She will stand approx. 45cms high with a weighted base, and look as though she has walked from a fashion plate from the 1930's, all glamour and sophistication!
Template of Arms
I am trying an Arley Berryhill pttern as the stump doll is a new departure for me. She is called 'Madame' and will be swathed in a glamorous velvet coat and an exotic turban. I have still to decide if she can hold her cigarette holder in these more careful times! I have a block that will make a splendid stand as she will be ready for the Pinehaven Fair early in September.
It is hard to see the subtle pattern on the fabric but it oozes glamour in a restrained way and will not fight against the fabric of the coat or any jewellery that the doll is dressed in. The arms will be modelled with chenille stems then gently stuffed before being attached. I will then move on to work on the head and face.
