  1. NO NEWBIES - sorry about this

  2. NO 1's in the past 3 months

  3. At least a 4.7 rating

About Dotee Dolls

First off if you even want to know what they are or want to see diferent ones go to this flickr group. Then you can go visit the woman who made dotee dolls over at her blog. If you need a tutorial on how to make dotees go see the tut by Dot herself here.

How You Should Rate I see this is needed as there are no real requirements on how to make a dotee or a theme, etc.

5 You got a dotee doll. COMMUNITCATION IS KEY IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE LATE

3 You got a dotee doll extremely late or it was made out of nasty dirty materials. I know this may be some of your first dotees but no nasty dirty stuff ok?

1 You did not get a dotee & need an angel

I am doing this. I want to do one but am intimidated by all the adorable Dotee's I've seen at FlickR. The thing I'm nervous about is the beading. I'm not very good at that.

Beading is not a requirement for dotee dolls - you can also embroider, use buttons/lace/ribbon/trim, paint them, etc.

Dotee is on her way to her new mom. Weeeeeee what a fun craft!

Wow, Jessica was way ahead of the power curve! I just received my adorable 'Rose'! Wygirl, she is very cute and I am delighted with her, the only beading is some beads strung for her hanger and tail. You don't even have to use beads for those, I have one with a ribbon hanger, I've made some with yarn hangers and tails. Just have fun!

I had made a few faces and when I compare them to the pictures of others they really dont look the same. But onward I went and I believe I have a face a mother would love :) I hope my partner forgives my very new beginner take on the Dotee doll.
