Facebook MAL
Well, this is nothing to do with bears, despite a picture of a bear :0) What's on display are the little hooded coats. Over the last 12 months or so, I've had a growing interest in Waldorf dolls and know that I will be going in that direction at some point - I'll still be making bears too though. If you're not familiar with Waldorf dolls, well I can't even show you one, as I haven't made one yet, but because I follow several ladies who make the most exquisite dolls, I've joined a Facebook MAL (make along) run by the very talented Astrid; and each 6-8 weeks, she introduces a new item of dolls clothing to make. So, even though I haven't been brave enough to make a doll yet (they look very complicated!), I have joined in with a couple of the MALs and the current one is this hooded coat.
Now the bear comes in because the coat actually fits him; and he was quite willing to model, even though I would really say it should be on a girl - just use your imagination a bit if you don't mind :0)
Anyway, I got that excited about the cute little coat AND the cutest fabric, I just had to make two simply because I couldn't decide which one to go with
So, what do you think!?

Years and years and years ago I attended a Waldorf/Steiner doll making class...we were shown how to make the head and face of the doll....mine looked like a squashed potatoe and the class laughed at it...I was a new young mum and easily embarrassed, I couldn’t face going back to the class so my potatoe head ended up in a cupboard...haha They are beautiful dolls though and you my friend are very creative so you need not fear, your dolls will never look like potatoes! Hahaha xxxxxxx
