Materials needed for each doll:

1 piece of 10" by 11" unbleached muslin (Note: Tearing the muslin will give a more nautral look than cutting)
1 ball of fiberfill @ 2" in diameter
Heavy quilting thread
2 1/2 inches of 1/2" pregathered lace (optional)
Red paint or red material scrap or red embroidery floss (Optional)

To give the muslin an antiqued look, dissolve 1 tablespoon of coffee into 1 cup of hot water. Let cool, and soak muslin for several minutes. Allow to dry.

For head: Fold one long edge of the muslin down about 2 1/2 inches. Place fiberfill between layers at center. Gather and wrap thread tightly around bottom of fiberfill ball to form a neck. Tie off.

For arms: Tie a knot at each corner close to the head. It helps to twist the fabric up a bit to make the loop for the knot.

If desired: tack lace to the back of head

If desired: paint, applique or embroider a small heart near the bottom front of the 'dress'.

Another cute idea is to gather a piece of flat lace in the center and attach to the back to create wings.
