A woodland poppet

 Every time I use the poppet pattern to make a Dobby (I've made a few for various children over the summer but only posted the one) I tell Dan in a surprised voice how very easy it is to make them and that I might make a non-Dobby just for the heck of it. 

So this little lady was born.

I'm terrible at making clothes, but didn't hate how hers turned out, there's a tutu under her skirt to give it some floompf and I even attempted the merest nod at embroidery! 


She has a tail!


Her hair is... out of control. I sewed a hair weft that probably had too much wool in it in the first place and then once it was sewn down I decided to 'brush out' the wool to make it fluffier, to a gentle chorus of "are you sure you should be doing that?! It's so big!" from Dan.
