Baby’s first waldorf softie

Well, she isn’t such a baby anymore, her first birthday is next month! Although she won’t be playing with dolls for a little while yet I think it  is a beautiful first birthday gift.

I made this 12 inch doll’s body from soft flannel. I tried out a new hair technique and am very satisfied with the results, it’s very secure and lifelike with no long strands for busy little fingers to pull out. I can also add a pony tail later if it’s wanted.

Bub’s initial is embroidered so there can be no question of ownership (she does have two sisters after all!)

    What a lovely doll. I made my daughter Matilda one for Christmas last year, but the head was all wonky…it looked like a sausage…so we lovingly call her "sausagehead"!

    that is just so cute and she will love and cherish it. I love the look of the hair as well, so different from your other dollies.

    Very cute – and well done for achieving one of your UFOs! I have a super soft cotton growsuit that Maddie was too big for put aside to make her first waldorf dolly out of it. Getting NOTHING done here (and grumpy because of it!)
