meet lucy!







this is lucy.

finally finished!

jessica watched as i sewed the last of her body together and then it was another week before i was game enough to do her facial features. i think i was scared i would muck it up. i am quite happy with the end result, although i am not entirely happy with her hair, there seems to be too much. i am contemplating a hair cut to tone it down.

lucy is a 12 inch doll. when i received the kit i initially wished that i had chosen a bigger doll but looking at her in jess's arms she seems to be a good size. 

jessica certainly has taken to her and said today that lucy was her baby sister.

lucy is fitting right in around here!

  1. Lucy is gorgeous! I can see why Jessica loves her so. Little Eco has had a similar sized one for a few years and still plays with her all the time.

  3. What a lovely doll. I've always wondered about making one for my boys, but I'm pretty hopeless with a needle and thread. I especially love Lucy's hair by the way - give her great personality!

    1. it was so easy with a kit as the head is already done so just a matter of sewing together and stuffing really. there are heaps of tutorials around so i am sure you could do it. i really like the little boy versions of the waldorf dolls and have a few pinned on my pinterest boards. hmmm... makes me think we might need a boy doll too!
