The My First Doll Book kit includes two sets of doll shapes precut from
quality felt, crochet thread, and yarn for hair. This third book in the
My First Sewing Book series applies the lessons of the first two books
(My First Sewing Book and My First Embroidery Book) to doll making,
using easy-to-follow directions written in rhyme. Using basic sewing
stitches, children hand sew a felt doll, embroider a face, add yarn
hair, and make doll clothes. Winky Cherry's unique My First Sewing Book
program teaches young children not only sewing skills, but life skills:
responsibility, commitment, focus, patience, coordination, organization,
and how to follow rules, all through the enjoyment of sewing. In six
books, levels progress from simple hand sewing, embroidery, and doll
making, to machine sewing, patchwork, and quilting. The three hand
sewing books feature clever rhyming instructions for children as young
as 5. The three machine sewing books are for children ages 7 and older.
All six titles have simple, clearly-illustrated instructions. Each book
builds on the previous books, and each book can stand alone.
