time out dolls pictures

17 years ago

Just wanted some of you ladies to know I posted some photos of my time out dolls. I had posted a while back but for some reason my computer would not let me post pictures and so I could not get back with you guys to show you what I meant about trying to use a good pattern.

I still am trying to figure out how to post the pattern to the internet.. once I do I will let you guys know .. these dolls are so cute and easy to make but look good..

I posted before under the user name of joanc0904

I loved you pictures. Do you make the bodies out of wood or are they cloth bodies.

donnajean, I make the bodies all from cloth ..no wood at all, and I add the hair a few strands at a time to make it look more real.. the girl dolls dresses I make also to make sure they fit properly.. the little boys I use thriftstore finds.. I have sold over 50 of these dolls and I still get orders. I have stopped making them for a while.. as I was getting burned out.. I did how ever make one special one for a lady to have a little boy doll look like her little boy and she wanted to give to her mother.. the little guy had bright red hair.. it turned out really cute.. I have seen the ones with the wood and some with just the suffing in a pair of PJs but they do not look or hold up like mine do.. I am trying to figure out how to post the pattern on line as soon as I can I will post the web site here..
glad you enjoyed my dolls, they were like part of the family at times.. LOL

I would love to get this pattern as well. I teach nursing students and am making dolls to simulate a day care center/school environment for pediatric scenarios. These time-out dolls are just about the right size! You can email them or send via snail mail. tgbussan@gmail.com or T. Bussan, 12404 Lismore Lane, Dubuque, IA 52001. Thanks a bunch!!

Hi Patsy, I just saw your posting on in this forum about the instructions to make a time out doll along with some pictures. I am not sure how old the posting is but if you still have these instructions, I would very much appreciate it if you could send them to me. I have been looking for instructions for quite some time. If Patsy is no longer on this forum, I would appreciate it if anyone who did received the pictures and instructions would send them to me as well. Thank you so much. Geri gezeee@yahoo.com

Making hair out of yarn is not hard. You can use whole strands of fine yarn for straight hair, or you can unwind thicker yarn for curly hair. The yarn hair can be stitched or glued onto a ribbon or gauze and then glued to the head, or it can be stitched straight onto the head if it's made from soft material. The simplest way is to make a thick hank of yarn and tie it together in the middle with a thread of the same yarn. Fasten this to the doll's head, gather together and make a bun or a braid at the back, pulling the strands together to cover the top of the head. Crafty College has sometimes had courses in doll hair making: http://www.craftycollege.com
