Publisher's Note Basic rag dolls and richly embellished sculpted cloth figures come alive in this colorful and complete dollmaking manual. Construction techniques for every type of fabric doll imaginable -- and some you'd never imagine -- are shown and demonstrated, stitch by stitch, in a book without peer in this field. Never before combined in one resource, patterns for simple dolls teach beginners the fundamentals of the craft, and more complex instructions offer an abundance of ideas and methods for more sophisticated doll sculptures. Dollmakers, textile artists, quilters, and craft enthusiasts are guided through detailed illustrations of everything from bending wire and cutting cloth to advanced finishing techniques. Examples used include work by the top dollmakers in the country.
