How To Create A Dolls Face Tutorial By Kaaren Johnston of The Painted Quilt

When it comes to dolls there isn't anything I don't love.  But, I'm especially partial to cloth dolls with painted faces. So, I was happy to see that Kaaren Johnston had a wonderful tutorial on her The Painted Quilt blog showing you how to create a dolls face.

How To Create A Dolls Face Tutorial

Here's what Kaaren had to say about her tutorial: At the outset, I’d like to share with you some words of wisdom that one of my art teachers used to say to her students…”There are many ways of right”.

Now having said that, I am not saying that my way of creating a doll’s face is the ‘right’ way, but it is the way that works best for me when teaching students who have had little or no artistic training and are too insecure to even attempt a face. I promise you that if you follow the steps that I am about to share with you, your doll’s face will look as good as or better than mine.

So without further ado, let’s get started. Plan to stay awhile because this tutorial is loaded with pictures and is quite long.

Kaaren's Bio: I am an artist and have recently retired from actively designing, publishing and travel teaching in the decorative painting industry. A short while later, in December of 2010, we moved from Eastern Ontario to the beautiful Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. Quilting, stitching, applique and most recently rug hooking have become my new passions. Oh, and did I mention that I love to make and collect pincushions and needlecases! Join me on the First Friday of every month when I release a new Freebie design for you to make and enjoy.
