New Pattern and Doll

Poor little thing doesn't have any arms.  I still need to stuff them and sew them on.  Anytime you make a new pattern, there is always a learning curve.   With this pattern, I learned not to stuff the legs, attach them and then sew the body.  What a nightmare!  At any rate, I was able to sew the body, stuff it and attach the head.  I look forward to finishing this doll.
