.Tips
on Assembly of Fashion Dolls
Several
of my customers have been experiencing problems with the assembly of these
Fashion dolls.
I
asked Doll Artist, Arlene Dangerfield if she would share her version
on
how
she assembles the Fashion Lady Dolls & Mermaid from Doll Art Works.
.
Arlene
Dangerfields's Special Tips for the Arms & Legs
"For
the Arms"
First, I do not do the arms
as they say.
I Cement a lock line beaded
piece into the shoulder arm hole.
Then into the arm and cement
that in place.
Now you can turn and pose the
arms any way you want.
It works with short and long
arms.
I wrap strips of quilt batting
around the lock line and shape the arms.
I then cover the batting
with a stretch nude fabric.
Below is a picture of this
process I use it on all my lady dolls that have a dropped shoulder.
.
"For
the Legs"
If I was making a "Mermaid" for the legs,
I would use two rows of lock
line long enough to go into the body and down the tail.
I would bind the two pieces
together and then stuff them in the body really tight.
.
If I was making the "Fashion
Doll" for the legs,
I would use two pieces
of heavy armature wire.
Then stuff them into the body
really tight.
Then I put a little stuffing
into the feet.
Then glue the wire into place
or just stuff them in tight.
Next I use the quilt batting
cut in strips to form her bottom.
I start if by hot gluing it
and than wrapping and shaping around both legs and her bottom.
Do not use to much.
Tie it off with glue and then
you can make a stretch nude pair of panties and you are done.
You also can put a dowel stand
up inside while doing this and that gives her a nice look.
