Overview

In this unique and beautiful book, beloved doll-designer Barbara Willis guides readers through various approaches to doll design and basic and advanced construction techniques.

A gallery shares the inspirational work of several well-known doll artists who have created their own versions of each project. Complete patterns and templates are included.

    Beautiful and Creatively Inspiring

    This book is such a pleasure to look through. The presentation of ideas for color, fabric and trim combinations are inspiring. It provides good general information on three types of dollmaking. The photos of the many ways a single pattern can be interpretted should be a confidence-builder for anyone new to dollmaking. I have shared this book with other non-dollmaking artists who also found it to be delightful and inspiring.
