Make your own Gothic Halloween Doll

Doll crafting has never been so easy, quick and fun! Follow this Halloween tutorial and find out how to make this Halloween Gothic doll in no time! You can use her as a decoration on your porch for Halloween or use her for Halloween Party Decorations.

Supplies:
1. Cotton fabric
2. Felt – black
3. Scissors
4. Hotglue gun
5. Yarn thread – black
6. Fabric paint, gel pen, pencil.
7. Stuffing

Step-1: This is the pattern I’m using for my Gothic doll, you can search online for more patterns.

Step-2: I used gel pen to trace the face details and other details. Used fabric paint to fill a few parts such as eye lids, lips. Used pencil to create shades on the eyelids and under the eyes.

Once you’re done drawing the face details cut out the doll pattern from the fabric but make sure to keep 1 or 2 cm extra around the sides. Place the fabric on a black felt. Fold the extra fabrics around the sides bit by bit and use hot glue to attach the sides with the black felt. Keep the bottom part open to stuff the doll.

Step-4: Insert wool or scrap fabric through the open end on the bottom side. After you’re done filling the doll use hotglue gun to close the open end to secure the stuffing.

Step-5: Use a scissor to trim the sides of the black fabric and make it even with the doll pattern.

Step-6: Cut out a few pieces of black yarns and a piece of black felt for the hair. You can go for any style you want for the hair, just make sure to keep it Gothic. Simply use hotglue to attach the hair with the doll.

Done!
