Trying a new craft

I have made a few dolls with a view to making some for the dolls house renovation. I had a few pipecleaner dolls in my house as a child, which probably came with the old dolls house that we had. I havent been able to find any dolls that I like and so this seemed to be a good option. I bought a verity hope pattern and I have experimented with it. My goal is to reduce the doll by 50 percent .
I have ordered some large wooden beads to use for heads and intend to use vintage fabric instead of felt.
