Description:
Let's all try our hand at making a small fabric prim doll for our partner. (The term "doll" does not necessarily mean you have to make something that represents a person - as long as it has a face, it is a doll!) While the main part of the doll is to be made of fabric, non-fabric embellishments/parts are definitely allowed - let your creativity soar! While this swap is aimed at those of us brand new to prim folk art, everyone who meets the requirements is certainly welcome to join. This one will be sender's choice. The doll should be between about 4 and 8" tall (or wide, depending on the orientation). I have searched for good examples and explanations of prim art and this one seems to be the best: primitive-folk-art I will be checking profiles to make sure everyone joining is a member in good standing of this group. (Please pm me if you have any unexplained 1s or 3s on your profile.) Any questions? Please pm me. Have fun!

Watching! I've never tried one of these before.

LavenderLizatd: Neither have I - there's gotta be a first time for everything!

threesweetpeas: I have amended the swap description to indicate that non-fabric parts and embellishments are certainly allowed!
