Making super-cute stitched dolls is a beloved tradition, and today it's more popular than ever!

Here are some of the freshest new designs from 10 of the world's leading dollmakers. Along with the book's 23 projects - which feature full-size templates and include trendy plush creatures as well as sweet-faced human and animal forms - are profiles of the artists, including colorful pictures of their studios and explanations of their signature techniques.

The international roster represents nations from the US and Mexico to Germany, Portugal, and Russia.

Industry Reviews

You don't have to be a child to enjoy this fine collection of doll-making inspiration and information, featuring ten dollmakers showcasing their creations. The best thing about this collection is the diversity of doll styles represented, including Denise Ferragamo's colorful matryoshkas, Jenn Docherty's whimsically embellished needlefelted animals, Nichol Brinkman's personality-filled "pillow monster" dolls, and Sasha Pokrass's fully jointed, Steif-esque handmade teddy bears. Serious sewing skills are needed to make most of these projects, but most of the doll makers have online shops (and links are included). VERDICT: The collection celebrates the diversity and artistry of contemporary doll making. The creations are inspiring, and crafters of all ages will enjoy customizing their own versions of the dolls. --Library Journal "This book is awesome! I love how simple the directions are, the photos are great and I LOVE seeing some photos of the artists...Go get this book. Now." --Schmancy Toys
