"Fielding", our 20" scarecrow is made
using muslin strips tied over a wire armature similar to a yarn doll. The wire armature
allows you to pose your scarecrow for hanging on your door or you can bend his legs to
make him sit. This is a fun project and requires little sewing skills. In fact, in many
instances you will be able to choose to either stitch or use your hot glue gun to complete
him. We do, however, recommend that you use a rotary cutter to cut the strips.
Our instructions will take you step by step through the construction of
"Fielding" including his wire armature and clothing. All pattern pieces
are full size with 1/4" seam allowances included.
We rate this pattern as easy enough for the beginner, but fun for
the experienced dollmaker too.
You may use this pattern to make dolls for your personal
use or to sell at local craft shows in limited quantities. The only requirement is
that you credit Cloth Dolls by Stitch 'N Stuff for the design on your hang tag or any
advertising. You may not reproduce this pattern for sale or mass produce
products made from this pattern. |
