DIY Felt Dress Up Dolls Series: Intro and base doll pattern

Disclaimer: you have to understand my level of "craftiness" which is... not very high. So this project was pretty huge for me. First of all, it took me a week to complete 3 base/nude dolls and 6 outfits. A week. If you've had experience working with felt and you're handy with your thread and needle then I bet you can do all of it in a day.

Also, if you're not very particular with sturdiness then you can even completely skip sewing the edges. I know that for my next project (a felt quite book), I am skipping as much sewing as I can. That's for another series.

So we start with the base, nude dolls. I made three. For each doll, I actually cut two and sewed them together so they're sturdy. I imagined Brie handling them more than the dresses, thus the concern.

That's it! Next I'll be sharing the six dresses I made. I intentionally split the dresses into top and bottom so they can be mixed and matched.
