Thank you so much for this tutorial! Though I’m not entirely sure I understand the point of all the different threads? Is it to make it more secure?

I love to read doll making information & always plan to use it some time so I save it.
Many years ago I made Judi’s Shirley Temple doll. I think she turned out lovely.I took one of Judi Ward’s on-line classes but haven’t finished my doll yet. However, the instructions with pictures are great so I’m looking forward to finishing my Bleuette next winter. We are moving from a large house into a smaller one so my time is spent with downsizing & taking my share of responsibility for an aging parent.
Love to all doll makers,
Linda

Hi All:
So glad to see more “happy jointers” with Mimi’s great tutorial! Thank You again Mimi for doing the tutorial and having it available for all. Cloth Dollmaking is my passion and “figuring out” new and easy ways to do stuff, or new shapes to achieve something are my driving force.
I usually won’t even start a new pattern unless it has something new to offer.
Dolly Hugs, Judi

I am having to design my own pattern as my kids want unusual animals and was looking for a way to make the legs movable. I hope this works. Thanks!!

[...] These dolls love sunbathing, they wear little knickers, made of the same fabric as their skirts. They have jointed legs with a hidden button. I learned this technique at mimi kirchners blog. Here’s were you can read this great tutorial! [...]

Delurking here to thank you for sharing this tutorial. I’ve never made dolls, but find them fascinating and might want to actually try making some someday soon. This excellent explanation has now piqued my curiousity even more.

Some time ago, you were looking for map fabric. I have a lot of yardage of a “round the world” type of print that is in light ocean blues, sand, and medium to light greens. If you are interested, please feel free to email me and I’ll send you some pictures of it.
