My first attempt at cloth doll making.
I have been wanting to make a doll for years and now that it's summer I finaly have the time.
I came up with the idea from looking at books and wanting there to be more dolls in action.
Now I am designing and sewing an entire goddess series, the next will be a Sun Goddess.

The pattern for the actual doll body is from the book 'Creative Cloth Doll Making' by Patti Medaris Culea, the moon and the stars I created.
The body was made out of a pale fabric with sparkley sheer over it (the sheer was left over from my prom dress ) and the moon and stars froma beautiful music note fabric my mom bought for another project.
Her face was soft-sculpted and drawn with black marker, colored pencils, and white acryllic paint. The hair is black wool roving.
I didn't really want to give her any clothing because her body is so beautiful I didn't want to cover it up, so I made a sort of scarf. It is stary fabric covered with black sheer to give it a night-sky look. I put steel wire inside to have some movement in the piece. Then I added some ribbon because my mother thought she wasn't covered enough -_-

I really do love her to pieces and would greatly appreciate comments/criticism on her.
