DIY Posable Elf Art Doll made In the Hoop


I finally got tired of Holiday decorating with plastic j
unk that everybody else could find at the big box stores. A few years ago I started to sprinkle whimsical handmade elves around the home. They make me smile every time I walk by one. Which happens a lot because I’ve amassed a collection over the years.

You can make some too! If you have an embroidery machine, you can stitch these in the hoop. Or if you are more of a sewist or general crafter, I have some kits available in my Etsy shop so you can create these with minimal effort.

The free video is provided in ADDITION to the Photo Instructions included in your digital download or kit (sold below). And if you’re BRAND NEW to making dolls, check out the Doll & Puppet making series below to get all the knowledge you need to whip up some cute little Elves before Christmas.
