Description I remade "Lizzie Scissors" for Lauren, a new friend of mine and a fellow dollmaker She asked for shoulder length black hair and eyes like "Chelsea".
If you havn't seen Lauren's dolls, you should check them out. She's VERY talented and full of humor. [link]

Thank you very much
I got them at Joann's fabric store in the scissor isle. I was surprised they had so many tiny scissors! hehehe

Your plushies are totally cute! You have your own style and that's great! I don't know of any advice to give you really except make TONS of dolls. The more you make the better you get at them. It took me 14 tries to get a body type that didn't look funny. lol But I never gave up. Each time I didn't like something about a doll, I'd think of ways to improve it next time. With each doll I make, I improve just a bit more. Don't be afraid to try something new and don't get discouraged if it doesn't turn out well. Just keep on sewing! hehe
I still feel like I have sooooooooo much more that needs major improving. My weekness is clothing, since I've never had any prior experience with making them, it's been hard. And I could improve on the hairstyles too I think. I'd like to get one of those books on doll making hair techniques one of these days. Right now tho, I'm a stay at home mom and don't have the kind of time I need to really get into the research and major improving. One of these days, when my kids are bigger I'll have LOADS of time, so I'm not too concerned. I just keep makin the dolls and having a blast doing it.
Some stuff I use that I can't live without are: Scribbles fabric paint and Alene's ok to wash it glue.
Hope that helps! lol
Keep up the great work! Your dolls are adorable!

Isn't it dangerous to equip a plushie with real scissors?

Only if you're not good at ducking

Well, yeah, but it makes the doll not very huggable...
