Witch Apple Gourd Doll

I always wanted to make an apple head witch and I'm finally doing it. The body is a cute little waisted gourd I got. I have all the parts now. I just have to figure out how to assemble everything so it stays together.

I made this head quite a while ago so I'm glad to finally be using it. The teeth are rocaille beads that I glued in. The hair is green 'Fun Fur' eyelash yarn. The red on the cheeks was done w/ a felt marker. The hat is the top of a small gourd.

Yay I finally finished my first apple head doll

I learned so much that I'll make the next one in a much more efficient manner. For one, put the head on last after the body is stuffed and the clothes are on it! Glue hair on last!

I named her Maddy. I'm so happy I finally finished one. It was intimidating. I had to keep reminding myself that if I could sew people clothes I could figure out how to make doll clothes. And it helps to remember the skirt is a circle and the scarf and shawl are both triangles. The shirt is a t-tunic. The hands and legs are made from a tan sock. Now I have more confidence in the whole process.
