Mina’s baby

As the Itsy Bitsy Babies are much to small for my favourite granddaughter, I decided it was time (after a 24+ year break) to make another soft sculpture doll. Can I do it?

I cut out the pattern last Friday night. On Saturday Trina sent me a link to an Etsy site that was selling the original pattern. The picture reminded me that there is a bent leg version as well as the straight leg. Seems I have lost the original bent leg pattern piece. However, as I made so many of them in the early 80s I traced the original pattern, first to enlarge it and then to have new pattern pieces when one set got well used. I was able to use the original tracing to make a new bent leg pattern.

Today I made the face. Next I have to start sewing. *gulp*
