​​Hello Reader,

It's a miracle! I managed to do what I set out to do today.

I finished recording, editing and uploading a video tutorial on the ladder stitch (Fundamental Tip #2). I began last weekend, but had to relearn the basics of my video editing program. I recommend viewing it in HD if you're able.

The last Fundamental (Tip #3) I plan to share at some point covers stuffing your doll. This is a struggle for a lot of cloth doll makers.

Corrected link to the Harvest Moon sale pattern:

I've made many Harvest Moon dolls over the years, including some reduced in size. You can see them HERE​

An abridged version of this pattern "Under the Harvest Moon" was created for Doll Crafter & Costuming magazine, September 2009 issue, so be sure to check your stash. This magazine ceased publication in 2010.

In case you missed it, here's Fundamental Tip #1:
