An
excerpt:
"In this book you will find a variety of dolls to
make, of many different types of materials and constructed in differing ways.
Perhaps you are the kind of person who starts in making the first doll and works
her way
right through the book. If so, you
will have quite a collection by the time you are through and no
doubt you will have some original ideas as you go along and will wish to create dolls of
your own...
