Description:

How about doing a Dotee in just polka dots,(just dots) since summer is almost here you could even do a PolkaDotted Bikini, tiny weeny bikini, or whatever you can come up with. Make it all with dots plus embellish with anything summery. I know you are all talented and can come up with something cool. I hope you all know the size and general appearance of Dotees', if not ask me or check Google for it. These are fun, fun to make and receive. I will make this USA and Canada only as postage is arising. Newbies okay but I will check your profile. Notify me if you see a flaker on the list as a lot of work goes into these.. Just one to make and receive.

Hi I would love to join in but have no idea how to make one. Can someone please help with the basic guide lines. Do you have to be able to sew really well cause that counts me out. I can hand sew but my machine skills are shabby

If you google "dotee dolls" a lot of websites will come up choose the one that instructs. Some other swapper here may have the exact website for you before I find it again. I am a new machine sewer and these are easy and can be done with or without a machine. I have received a lovely handdone one already.

I think most are hand sewn. they are easy, thats the way I make mine.

Either way is just great. Most I have received have been machine sewed together than hand stitched for embellishments, face etc. In fact my next one, I will do all by hand, interesting.

Just to let you all know, I am banning anyone with less than a 4.5 rating. You all do such fine work and deserve to get back what you put out to others. If circumstances gave you a less than that and you want to improve and just love these little girls (guys) than let me know your intentions.

Thanks for opening this swap up to newbies. I've just completed and sent my first dotee and am now addicted. You can find some excellent pictures (a bit intimidating) of ones on Flickr and a tutorial on YouTube. "how to make a dotee doll" by smiles and sunshine.

For some reason I didn't check the countries in this swap. I hope you guys don't mind it but we do have some from outside the USA and Canada. Must do a better check. I guess some are not reading the instructions.
