Raggedy Ann or Rag Doll Needle Felted and Sewn Hair Tutorial

this is a needle felted and hand sewn rag doll hair tutorial
if you do not wish to needle felt her head first please see the
2010 rag doll hair tutorial

~

by needle felting her head you are covering her scalp

so no material shows through her hair

and

by hand sewing instead of felting the strands are secure

and cannot be pulled out her head

~

I use 3 ply wool rug yarn from Halcyon Yarn

~

to start the needle felting I cut pieces of wool around 5" long

and separate the strands

~

 ~

using a felting needle I work first along her head seam

then her head back felting in a circle to fill in where her

hair will be sewn

~

 ~

now you are ready to sew on her hair

~

cut the wool to the desired length of hair you want

I cut 5" strands ~ then separate them and

spacing about 1/2 inch sew the three strands 

around Annie's head

~

 ~

continue to sew 3 strands at a time

filling in the back of her head 

~

 ~

finger comb her hair when finished and trim where needed

~

finished!

~

hope is helpful 

please email me if you have any questions

~

thanks for visiting

God bless
