Going Primitive
A few months ago I made my first Prairie Doll . She was made simple, faceless, and with not much “aging.” I have since then studied Primitive techniques and dolls, from Prims Magazines to facebook groups such as Purely Primitive Dolls, from Barb Moore’s book. So I “grundged” my first Prairie doll. I used a pattern I found from Happy Heart Patterns , which is SO much easier to follow and has better directions than the pattern from my first Prairie Doll. I stained the muslin using Rit dye before I cut out the pattern. I threw it in the dryer, then ironed out the wrinkles and went to work tracing the pattern onto the muslin. She turned out just lovely . . .
