I purchased stretch cotton fabric in a flesh tone. All you do is make the shell of the doll and sew the pieces of the skin together and since the skin covering is stretchy it just pulls right over. Hope that helps. Re: My Home Made Dolls - lanika    2010/01/05(Tue) 10:00   No.337    jamaica hey kerry i purchased my stretch fabric the is brown i just hopes it looks good when i finish making it.

They are so fun to make I started out with Runo's little Angel patterns, her bigger doll patterns are not really hard but are a lot of work, well worth it when they are all done though. This year thanks to Runo I made all my presents. Aside from hemming pants I've never done this kind of sewing, her pictures and instructions are a wonderful learning tool!

Failed Ferret    by Star    Date : 2009/01/11(Sun) 14:36    No.241    USA    I tried to attempt Runo's ferret, and I failed terribly. It is not Runo's fault; her patterns are always very good. Runo makes a wonderful ferret. Mine is a weasel. I will practice hard and try to do better in the future. My suggestion is to always make head gusset the same color as body, not like I did with a lighter color, or ferret will look like a skunk. Also eyes too far apart looks like obese squirrel instead of ferret.

Dachsund!!    by Samantha   Date : 2010/07/25(Sun) 03:29    No.399    USA    I haven't made a stuffed animal for a long time, and this was my first time working with fur. I can't way my parents appreciated having orange fur all over the floor... but I'm pretty happy with the results!! I don't think I'll make another one, though, because I don't have a whole lot of patience and as a 13 year old that's always going from one thing to another, I don't have a ton of time to make one. But because it's summer, it took me 2 days to finish. Which still felt like forever because I could only do a few stitches at a time since I had places to be and things to do.(: And, no, it doesn't have eyes yet. I could only find 18 mm ones.

Mew (Terry Kitty)    by EmbersOfOmega   Date : 2010/02/21(Sun) 10:58    No.355    Maryland, USA    I started making these last year after a co-worker pointed out this website to me.

Keith and Tullulah    by Elaine    Date : 2015/08/02(Sun) 00:28    No.591    Texas USA    Hello, my name is Elaine. I have autism and sewing is how I show my creativity. I made these two nekomimi dolls one was made using runo's tall boy pattern. His name is Keith. His little sister, Tullulah, was made using the nekomimi pattern with arms from the merman pattern. I modified her arms since they were too long. But I absolutely love them! I have been fasinated by runo's work since I was 13. Thanks for sharing your awesome patterns, Runo. You are quite an inspiration!

So, you can see her instructions, they are very, very good, and easy to follow. Re: Shiva deity - Sri    2014/10/30(Thu) 23:30   No.584     Nice.
