Creative Cloth Doll Couture by Patti Medaris Culea

Creative Cloth Doll Couture is an expert workshop on designing couture fashions for your art dolls. Making stylish, exotic and beautiful garments and accessories, such as hats, shoes and purses, is an essential part of designing an art doll, and a task that many doll designers find daunting. In addition to instructions for creating a basic doll designed to fit all of the featured garments, readers will find full-color, step-by-step instructions for making a vintage 1940s suit, a 1960s collaged and layered outfit, a formal gown and a fantasy fairy ensemble with wings. Each ensemble teaches new techniques, from decorative appliqués and beaded trims to draping techniques for silks and satins, to dyeing, stamping and painting effects.

Patti Medaris Culea combines her love of silk, dyes and ornamentation by creating extraordinary fairies, mermaids, and other one-of-a-kind dolls. She has a full line of cloth doll patterns and her work has appeared in books, magazines, and galleries. She travels internationally as a sought-after workshop instructor. www.pmcdesigns.com
