Hi there, I offered to give a demo for Dollies in Newcastle so have been putting that together while I am resting my back. I was in an car accident last Friday and I have a very sore back and shoulders. I will be getting some physio this afternoon to go with the pain killers.
On with the demo on hand turning-
If you are unaware there is a little tool kit available at most doll supply shops with a group of different diameter brass tubes and a couple sizes of brass rod included that help a doll maker to turn the fingers of fabric doll hands. Check out my information here on the method I use. I was taught this at Dollies a few years ago. I certainly don't own the process. If I can help you drop me a note or if your local, drop into Dollies this Saturday 10am-12noon and you can watch me actually do the whole process. Hope it helps you! I will also be giving a demo on Sculpting in Super Sculpy at the Stitches and Craft Show at the Entertainment Centre in Newcastle on Sunday. So be sure to stop in and see the Hello Dollies booth at the show. It will be mostly embellished quilts not as many dolls as last year. But I bet will still be a fantastic showing of beautiful fabric crafts. So hope to see you there.
