Welcome to Doll Makers Muse!

I'm Rivkah, and I have a very interesting hobby - creating art dolls.
My dolls are made of fabric.  Believe it or not, the fascination for me is not so much the doll itself, but the process of designing the pattern.  Creating a sewing pattern that actually takes the shape of a human figure  involves a lot of calculation, intricacy, and creativity.  Once I'm happy with my pattern, I apply a variety of mediums and techniques to transform the cloth doll into something that resembles porcelain.  This is my "happy medium."

Doll making has been gaining popularity in the art world over the past few years.  While some people might still equate dolls with toys, I seek to increase awareness of art dolls in the greater artistic community. 

I have a small line of patterns available that show you how my dolls are created, so you can try your hand.   Click here for more information.
