I have never seen exactly how to do this...now I love them.
Easy peasy, no machine needed. What do ya think? What about a sew-along or a swap?

Wow I totally forgot about this....long time ago. I was sick.
Anyone wanting to take this on would be so much fun. For now I will be watching.
I would love to see Nativity characters done this way.

The end of March is coming up! Does anyone else need a little more time to send the dotees to everyone? I DO!
I've been in the hospital (my little excuse) and have to rest alot now. I'm shooting for closer to middle of April.
How is everyone else doing??

PLEASE send your address to me and I'll send them to each of us.

Someone sent me a dotee with a pin on back of her...not one of us swappers.... I love it! A work of art that that is to be worn!
Thanks to Linda Jo.

I like something small, can be sewn by hand and hung up on the wall to take up less room.

The end of March sounds good to me. I'm just taking a break from working on them now. But I can't seem to stay away for very long! They're addictive!!!

Take care, Melissa.

I have my fabric all cut out and one face embroidered on. Hubby took me to Joanns today and I picked out all kinds of beads, flowers and funky yarns for their hair. It's as much fun thinking up different doll styles and buying the supplies, as it is making them! :)


Take care, Melissa.

I've got some fabric picked out...some will be from a repurposed camisole..with lace and sequins on it. A permanent marker for face and fancy buttons to go on them somewhere. Some buttons look like candy! Yarn makes good hair...various colors. The dotees are small and can be stuffed with cotton balls, floss makes good hangers and tails. Floss would be cute with buttons or beads on it....so there are my ideas...I have the supplies collected.

Hi Betty Jo,
I saw your post about the dolly calling to you. lol My life is going thru changes...not all bad...but some are health related.

I am also on a site called swapbot.com we are swapping rescue doll we fix up(used from thrift store). I have an old Madame Alexander used naked doll..I'm going to make an outfit for her for the swap. Her legs are funky...not dirty but hanging too loose...I don't want to try to fix that but maybe the lady I send it to will want to.

Hello Linda!!!! How are you? I have just pick up another doll who cried to come home with me. Funny thing is that when I got her home she matched another one that I had rescued a while back. A Saucy Walker. So now I have two I have to fix and dress. Love the Dotee Doll. I will see if I can get a few done this weekend,staring a new job next week :>(, and maybe I can join your swap. P.S. I love your saying!!! It so describes me. I even have it on a T-shirt!!!!
