Waldorf Doll-Making Workshop
I am very excited to announce a doll-making workshop at my studio. I will be teaching a small group of maximum 8 people.
Description: Spend twi days learning to make a wonderful Waldorf inspired doll. Using a doll body pre-sewn by Monika from a traditional Waldorf Doll pattern, you will create a doll that will be its own character. Dress patterns will be part of your hand-out, so that you might sew lovely outfits for your dolls at home.
You can choose the hair, skin tone, eye and lip colour.
Skills required: basic hand-sewing knowledge. Optional: basic crochet (there are wig alternatives that involve sewing instead of crochet).
Cost: $200 (Incl. HST)/person (max 8 people) (14+ hours instruction time)
(Includes all materials for doll: pre-sewn body and head cover skin, pattern for doll body, wool stuffing, dress patterns, thread matching skin colours, choice of doll hair, long or mohair).
Please bring your own sewing scissors, measuring tape, pins, a note-pad and pen.
