Description:
This is for USA only per postal needs for some. This is not a DOTEE - our goddess will have no face and will have arms (legs optional) but to keep her simple no legs is easier so all can make her. Embellish her with beads ribbon fiber the fabric and tell a story with color etc - just make her as teenagers will say COOL - RAD or whatever word they are using now. Stuff her and embellish her and off she goes - this is senders choice of color and etc You can add a hanger on her if you wish to enjoy and have fun i have a pattern if you need one will email - this patter makes her 7.5 inches tall and 5 inches wide from tip of hand to tip of hand, this would be a good size to use for height no taller than 8 inches. You may use any style you wish for your pattern Maggie249

What is the minimum size? Maximum size? I have made them small enough to fit inside an altoid tin. (That would make a cool swap!)

aprox 7 to 8 inches tall please / that way all will be close to same size for this swap any style you would like must have head and arms at least (this is not a Dotee) yes tin with little goddess doll would be good idea maybe next one soon Maggie

Are there any guidelines on stuffing? I was thinking using herbs and/or tiny tumbled stones might be a nice addition/replacement for poly-fill. :-) (of course keeping profile allergies/dislikes in mind)

I love this idea Maggie :) I wonder if I can do this. My other dolls turn out okay.....hmmmm. Will give this some thought.

I am now the proud owner of 8 of these dolls and really like how they turned out-cool!

I am really bummed to not be able to participate. Once Maggie sent me the pattern I was real excited to try it. Something has come up that is going to have me real busy into Feb though so I dare not commit to any swaps at this time. Thanks Maggie for organizing this swap for the USA. Hopefully I can catch you next time.

INSIDE ALTOID TINS - I have also made DOTEE dolls inside altoid tins they were easy enough in the tiny size for me to sew flip and stuff - do not know if i could make one in goddess spirit style - now i have a mission to see if i can get the little had and arms to work thanks for that Flofirenzie
