AEROSMITH - RAG DOLL
Making A Sturdy Rag Doll That Will Be Around For Years to Come by JoAnn Gagnon
Up Close and Personal
Personalize it! In today's culture that seems to be the door to happiness. When it comes to making rag dolls personalizing them is the greatest fun. These flexible soft, cuddly, machine washable dolls will be the talk of the neighborhood. Do not be surprised if you have neighbors requesting you to make a individualized cloth doll for their child, they're that loveable. After making a rag doll or 2 it becomes easier and less stressful. But the rewards are always worth it.
With all the love and escapades these dolls will surely experience it is important to ensure that the seams are definitely strong. Use a 3/8" seam allowance when stitching a pattern for an 18 inches doll. Measure from the point of the needle to the edge of your presser foot to be sure it is a perfect 3/8" wide. If you can't adjust your sewing machine's needle position, re-measure the seam allowance from the side of the presser foot and place blue painters tape on your sewing machine to provide a precise guide to follow. For dolls less than 12 inches the usual seam allowance of ¼" are better for the petite personal curves and there is less bulk. You will need to set your stitch length to no greater than 1 1/2" long. By applying the shorter stitches it is found to be easier to create strong flat, rounded seams. For added resilience and stay to your seams go back and zig-zag the edges for strength.
Before starting your dolls construction, cut out and iron all cloth pieces flat. As always you should read all the instructions all the way through in the doll patterns you are going to sew. It will prevent surprises and you never know what necessary information you will gather. No matter how slight the curves are, clip and notch them before you start sewing. Strenghten stress point areas such as necklines, arms, and leg attachment areas by sewing a second time 1/8" away from the first set of stitches. By using a sculpting needle, indent a place for the eyes. Use quilting thread for added strength as you go in from the backside of the head to pull the eye area in.
Although soft dolls are soft, cuddly, and fun to snuggle with, we want to pay extra attention to the neck area. We want a soft doll that "can hold her own" not need to depend on someone or something else to support her head. By using a 3/8" dowel rod that extends above and below the actual neck length, you can wrap it with stuffing and insert in the neckline and fill in with stuffing packed tightly all around it, giving dolly a "heads up" look. If you would rather not use a dowel or even if you want to use the dowel but not use the stuffing you can cut a strip of Warm and Natural cotton batting approximately 2 incheswide and 20" long. Roll this batting up very tightly like a sleeping bag. Keep rolling until the distance across is approximately the same distance across the neck hole. Hand stitch through the batting to hold it together and then position in the neckline. You can also use the Warm and Natural cotton batting to roll around the dowel. There may be Popsicle sticks or strong Q-tips around your home that you could use also.
It is critical that you make certain you have all the supplies you need and that you have read through all your instructions from your doll patterns. Knowing these skills willhelp in your creating a charming rag doll. It will make the task simpler for you when you know what is coming next. Be imaginative and see if you can come up with some ideas that we have not mentioned.
