Creating A Custom Doll


So, this is how the creative process all begins for crocheting a custom doll for a customer.  Doesn't look like much now, in fact you probably don't even know what it is, but this is the beginning of "her" head.  Follow along as it transforms into an adorable adaptation of her recipient just from a couple photos.

Here is one just completed for Feel Better Friends that will be shipped to Louisiana Monday morning.   Due to confidentiality I'm not able to show you the little girl receiving this doll.  She is a 1 1/2 year old born with serious heart condition and already underwent heart surgery and 4 heart caths. 



So tomorrow is the big Super Bowl game.  I will be watching and working on this new doll at the same time.  A winter storm is in our forecast for this evening and tomorrow.   Just made a trip to Hobby Lobby this afternoon so I have all the supplies I need to tuff it out.

            Hope you all stay safe and enjoy the Big Game!     Jean
