ABSTRACT:
The doll is formed by outlining a desired feature with an adhesive such as either a meltable, fuser thread or a sheet of fuser material with cutouts in the shape of the desired feature between a stretchable front and a non-stretchable rear piece of fabric. Soft material is inserted between the two sheets within the feature such as through the top of the U-shaped nose opening and through a slit in the rear piece of fabric behind the mouth. The mouth can also be formed by satin-like stitches. The lips can also be formed by running stitches forming an outline, which is then filled. Satin-like stitches then cover the protruding lips. Small heat fusible adhesive disks create the eyes. Inset eyes may be formed by placing a length of thick, elongated material, such as a cord, around the attached region and sewing the ends of the cord together. The area between the outline of the thick, elongated fabirc is inset from the raised outline of the thick, elongated material. Stitching the front and rear sheet together next to the nose may also create eyes. The space between the two sheets at the forehead, cheeks and chin is then filled with more soft material, or a batting module with a central opening may surround the features between the sheets. The front and rear sheets of material are sewn together, the face portion is attached to a back head portion, and the cavity between them is filled with soft material. The eye locations are stitches with long stitches extending through the back piece and pulled tightly to indent the eyes.
