My dolls start as an original doll template pattern in Adobe Illustrator. I make many tests of a pattern, through trial-and-error. When I am happy with the doll body shape, I add features and details with digital illustration. Once I have a final design, I utilize Spoonflower to print my design onto cotton or stretch fabric. Then, I hand sew my doll and attach a variety of colorful and textured yarn hair. My dolls may be simple in form, but the beauty lies in the intricate details I design into the dolls—from faux lace details and tattoos to bold patterned undergarments.
