He's made mostly of linen and stuffed with wool. He's also got some vintage bits. I'm so happy that the visor flips up. He's pretty big, too - about a foot tall when sitting. He's in the shop.

I meant to have this finished last week, but it took so much longer than I expected. I had lofty plans of making a whole bunch of different flip dolls for my shop before Christmas, but I am beginning to realize it just isn't practical right now with the little ones. It's hard balancing motherhood with me-hood sometimes, but I'm getting there. I make charts and that helps. ;)

I have started a second one - I'm not sure when he'll be finished, and he may be the last for awhile, but he's going to be super. Here's a sneak peak - I love these colors:

I used to have a flip doll, but I never knew what it was called! Mine was a crocheted Alice/White Rabbit that my grandma made. I'm so excited to see another one!
