distraction doll "a" finished. distraction doll "b" – with the crocheted hair – has been scrapped. now it’s on to distraction bear. I mean, back to work on the kit, chloe & louise pattern of course.
A captivating gang of 24 huggable, lovable creatures to sew—from classics like Margot, a topsy-turvy doll, and the button-jointed teddy bear Bjorn Bjornson, to irresistible Evelyn, a wool felt inchworm decked out in mod glasses and a kerchief, and Koji, a fiercely cute spiked softie monster. There’s something for everyone here—from kids to grown-ups and from beginning sewers to advanced dollmakers. Published by STC Craft, August, 2010.

I love the doily-dolly hair. So clever!
Have tons of vintage doilies. Will trade for a stuffed dolly.
She looks sweet! As though she’s wearing a Fresian ( North of Holland ) head-dress from about 100 years ago .Her shoes are a lot cuter than Oma’s button boots though .
