G'day. I made my first version of this doll a few years ago. I was recently asked to make him again for the daughter of a friend. I completed him on the weekend.
Luckily, I still had most of the fabric left over from my earlier one, so I didn't have to go hunting for anything.
I still have my original one, he sits atop the old kitchen dresser in my sewing room and he still brings a smile to the faces of everyone who sees him.
Take care.
