Damnit Doll

Check out the Damnit Doll I made for a friend. I gave her in a wine bottle gift box.


Here is the poem that goes with the doll:

DAMMIT DOLL

When you want to climb the wall,

And stand right up and shout.

There's a little Dammit doll

You cannot do without.

Just grasp it firmly by the legs,

And find a place to slam it.

And as you whack the stuffing out

Yell Dammit, Dammit, Dammit!

If Dammit's not a word you say

Then twist its little neck

And grumble out repeatedly

Oh Heck, Oh Heck, Oh Heck!

And once your done abusing it

Just sit it on the shelf.

But hug it first, as I'd hug you

If I were there myself.

Here are the steps I took:

Cut out arms and legs.

I used a pattern from Circle of Crafters

I stuffed the limbs

All stuffed!

Sewed up the holes I left for stuffing

Ta-da!

Attached the button eyes

Sewed the arms to the front of the body

Careful not to prick your finger!

Sew on the legs

Sew on the hair

Sew closed the body,

leaving room to turn it right-side out

Once you turn it right-side out,

stuff it and close the hole

Enjoy!

I got my inspiration from Old Fashion Tips.
