Finished at last!!!!

For about 18 months now I have been working on my doll!  I have wanted to make one for ages and bought books (as one does!)  Just getting started was the main obstacle - I just couldn't decide on fabrics and then was very indecisive about actually cutting out..However once I got going she came together quite well.  I am not entirely happy with the shape and the arms are way to firmly stuffed.  All we need now is a name.
I will just need to make another one to help perfect my techniques.
This one is based on a pattern by Eleanor Peace Baillie and I think with a different choice of fabric and hair will make a good choice to make again - watch this space!
