Sweet Little Elf Doll. Another "Nora" doll from Embroidery Outlet (Gerda Burghardt is amazing and she is having an excellent sale thru Dec.31). This one I used the ears from the elf and curled fun fur yarn for her hair (Which looks just like my sister's natural hair, we had a laugh together). I used raggedy leaves for her apron and made a little bunting baby out of bits and pieces from everyone's designs. You are all so kind and giving...I hope I can inspire you in some way. I am working on the hair video..... Merry Christmas

Just absolutely adorable. How do you curl the yarn?

Wrap the yarn around a small dowel or knitting needles, I use corn cob skewers that I purchased from Safeway but I think they are seasonal. Spritz the wrapped dowels with a little water and bake it in the oven at 225 degrees for about 30 minutes. Let it cool and you have curls.

I love her. How long did it take to make her?

Hard to say. I do them in parts I make four sets at a time. It takes 2 hours to stitch out one and turn it. Then some time stuffing and hand finishing. The hair takes about 2 hours to put together then whatever details like hair accessories and shoes. Maybe 8 - 10 hours.
