~ I love Miniature Doll Art and here tried my hand at taking some cloths, semi-precious beads and jewellery findings , a handful of soothing lavender and art doll faces to create my version of a little fiber art doll
~ I put a link below so you can download and print the little miniature doll art pattern if you would like to try your own version of it
~ This fiber art doll can be sewn entirely by hand as well if you do not have access to a sewing machine
~ I decided to turn the little art doll into a pendant and added some jewellery findings , some beads and strong thread to be able to add it to a necklace ( I attached a crimp hook bead at the end )
~ Enjoy
