Little tip
For such a tiny doll, I find it easier to

assemble the pieces together using
matching colour threads instead of the
yarn as the needle used is smaller.
If you prefer you can fasten off and

leave a long tail for sewing instead of
weaving in the end yarns.

Geisha
< Getting the face of the little Geisha just right is very important, she needs that happy
expression. Step 1, stuff the head firmly, and embroider the eyes with two strands of black
thread. To help you place them right, draw the eyes with an air erasable pen.
< Make a straight stitch for each eye and go over it with a tiny stitch in the middle of it to give
it an arch. Do the same with the eyelashes. Make sure the eyes match!
< Still using two strands of black thread, straight stitch the three little hairs. Now, with two
strands of red thread, embroider the mouth and French knot the cheeks. If you prefer, you
can use red or pink beads or small pieces of felt for the cheeks. For an even more blushing
look, use a red or pink felt-tip pen for the cheeks.
< Now, squeeze the head into the hair cap, stuff the buns and sew them on with the tails of
yarn left and with a few stitches around the haircap, secure the hair onto the head.
< Stuff the body firmly and with metallic thread, chain stitch the kimono details. Now, attach
head to body with the tail of yarn left.
< Stuff the legs and embroider the little shoes details with two strands of white thread, making
a V stitch. Attach feet to body using one strand of black thread.
< Stuff the arms and sew them onto body using one strand of thread the colour of the dress.
< Finishing touch: don’t forget to tie little bows around her buns.
