What is a dotee?

Altered art doll

Use your imagination there is no limit you will need thread,embroidery floss,sharpies,needle,fabric, little doodads to make a tail,stuffing, yarn or other material for hair different other materials like it says above use your imagination.

Most dolls are 3-7 inches before adding a tail.

You can draw a face or sew a face.

Dotees are cute little fabric dolls about the size of your hand. They can be embellished with buttons, beads, charms and much more. They don't have arms or legs but they do have a hanger (ribbon)and a tail (beads usually) The face is drawn or stiched on felt circles (at least in all I have seen)

A dotee is a little doll created by a woman named Dorothy that can be shared to friends and family. It is made from fabric and has a little face on it. They do not have arms or legs, but they do have a tail! One thing I am excited about creating them is that I can use up some of my scraps! yay!

Dottees are a great use of scrap material that you have laying around the house. You will need an open imagination, sewing thread, needles, some fabic (about the size of your hand), stuffing, something to use as hair...like yarn. Something for a tail like a string of beads or ribbons and something for a hanger. Creaters sew on a face..or they can be hand drawn with a marker. You can also embellish it in many ways.

A dottee doll, is just a few inches tall, with a face and a tail, but no arms or legs. They can take on many characters depending on how they are embellished. Use your imagination and the scraps in your craft basket.
