You Will Need (4 things)

  • Colored Felt
  • Needle And Thread
  • Scissors
  • Tulle

Steps (13 steps, 90 minutes)

  1. 1

    start out with what u need
    (cat is not included =P)

    black,skin colored,pink and white felt
    colored threads that match the felt =_=

    scissors o_O and a sewing needle (NOWAY!)

  2. 2

    fol a paper in half and draw a leg but keep the side connected so it would open like so

    cute out two *o*

    and sew the part that is not connected of the two legs

    ( i used back stitch method)

  3. 3

    do the same but a smaller shape for the arms :D
    again cut.. TWO!!
    and again.. sew the open part..of both of them

  4. 4

    again on a piece of paper draw the body and a head+neck like shown

    now sew the head and the neck but keep a small part of the neck so u can attach the head to the body :)
    try to flip the head inside out at this point its going to be a bit hard because the neck is so tiny! but try ur best ^^

    and DONT sew the body

  5. 5

    now once u have all the parts as shown
    its time to start attaching them :D woohoo!

  6. 6

    now sew one opened part (the top) of the leg to on part of the body
    like shown

    and repeat on the other part

    then on the other leg :D

    (in this step i used the normal connecting method)

  7. 7

    now close the gap between legs
    (sounds kinda weird)
    (again i used the back stitch method)

  8. 8

    now do the same as step 6 with the arms

    and close the gap between each arm and the leg

  9. 9

    stuff the head and the body.. and connect :D

    (i used an old pillow for stuffing.. mom will kill me :D hahhaha)

  10. 10

    now add the tiny teeny bits /eyes,blush,eye spark, and smile

    (you might want to do this step before sewing the head o_O)

  11. 11

    the shirt!!
    cut this out.. twice and sew it together while its on the doll.. (the head is too big to slip it on)
    decorate it however you want :)

  12. 12

    =(
    i wanted to make yarn hair but i had to do it really fast because my mom was leaving to syria the next day !

    anyways.. if u decided to make felt hair.. cut the shapes that you like and sew them on the head :D

  13. 13

    the tutu was made based on

    and now you have the doll.. all cute and akatootoo and stuff :D
    yeah enjoy ^^
    hope it wasnt too complicated >_
