Clown Doll Sewing Pattern
Hey there, dolls lovers! We stumbled upon this amazing image and we couldn't wait to share it with you! The creativity of the designers behind this doll collection is simply fantastic. Check out this jaw-dropping doll image we found on Pinterest!
We know you'll agree when we say that this doll is an absolute stunner. Her outfit and expression say so much about her personality. We were intrigued to find out more about the designer and the concept behind this doll.
So we did some research and found out that this doll is part of a larger collection of dolls based on "Living Dolls". The costume designer behind these dolls, Lena Kinzer, has been creating dolls since 2002!
Each doll in the collection is unique in its own way, with its intricate costume and character development playing a significant role. The collection has been so successful that it's been exhibited at different arts and crafts fairs in Europe.
Description
The materials and accessories used in creating these dolls are based on the concept of recycling. Kinzer uses anything from old vintage fabrics to cotton to create the dolls' dresses and other accessories. It's pretty amazing to see how something that would have been thrown away can be transformed into something so beautiful and unique.
The doll is made of a hard foam body covered in fabric. Her facial features, hands and feet are handmade and painted to give her that authentic look. The doll's hair is hand-sewn and styled to fit the character.
Materials
As previously mentioned, Kinzer uses recycled materials to make the dolls. This helps to not only support sustainable practices but also gives the dolls a unique look. Some of the materials that she uses in creating the dolls include:
- Old textiles(fabrics, lace etc.)
- Cotton
- Plastic
- Foam
- Paint
Pattern Sizes
The dolls do not follow any specific pattern size, as each doll has its own unique body shape and size. This is due to the fact that the dolls are made of foam, which can be easily molded to obtain any shape or size desired. Each doll's costume is also tailored to fit its specific shape and personality.
How To Make This Doll
Now, with all the information provided, it's time to attempt to make this doll yourself! Here are the basic steps to follow.
Step One: Gather All Materials
Gather all the materials needed for this project. You will need foam, fabric, old textiles, lace, cotton, plastic, paint, and any other accessory you want to add to the doll.
Step Two: Create the Doll's Body
Cut out the foam to match the desired shape and size of the doll's body. Cover the foam with fabric, using glue or tape to attach the fabric to the foam.
Step Three: Design the Doll's Facial Features
Create the doll's facial features by hand. Start with a sketch of your desired face and then use paint to bring it to life. Create the eyes, nose, and mouth of the doll, along with its hair. The hair can be created using a variety of materials, including wool, thread, or even extra fabric.
Step Four: Dress the Doll
Use the old textiles, lace, and other fabrics to create a dress for the doll. It's important that the dress matches the character and personality of the doll. Don't forget to accessorize the doll with jewelry, belts, hats, or any other accessory that will add to the doll's look.
Step Five: Bring the Doll to Life!
Once you're satisfied with your doll, you can bring her to life by adding any finishing touches that you see fit. Display her proudly and admire your creativity!
