Doll and Mushroom


Here are two of my pieces, the doll is part of the Town Hall Exhibition for the SA Embroiderers Guild. The Mushroom is off with them too for the Botanical Gardens Exhibition.
The doll was dressed for a doll group challenge to dress a doll without a pattern. The skirt is two pieces of cheesecloth nuno felted together and the top is a rectangle of nuno felt with two arm holes cut into it then stitched at the front with bought ribbon flowers. Her hat matches it was my first attempt to felt around a ball. Which was not a great success as a vessel as it was intended but looks cute as a hat.
