This is one of my favorite self-designed doll bodies so far. Using stretchy fabric allows for more body shaping without having to do a lot of needle sculpting.
I have to redo the other leg as the foot was noticeably larger than I wanted. I’m also redoing the arms. I like the way I attached them but they are too short as I didn’t measure them properly.
I did do a small amount of needle sculpting to distinguish each breast and cheek.
However, I’ve been procrastinating with finishing the doll because I have so much to redo and lost my patience.
By the way, I hand sew many of my dolls. I have a sewing machine but sewing by hand is relaxing. I like to take my work with me and sit outside and people watch or enjoy the sun.
Unless the doll is large in size, my tendency is to sew by hand and my stitches are neat, small, and uniformed.
