Description:

Ok heres the thing, I saw these ugly dolls and fell in love. However they are quite expensive, so I thought why not make one. So here is the deal it will be makers choice. You choose how you want to make it, the color, the whole nine yards. You do need to look at what an ugly doll is to get the idea. It will have to be no smaller than say 14 inches. Of course if you want to make it bigger go right ahead. Features such as eyes must be sewn on or must be fabric and be glued on. I know these are kind of odd and they are an aquired taste. Maybe I am a little odd. Oh well. Make them out of something soft. Make them odd. Have fun with them. For this swap I prefer they be made from fabric. If you knit or crochet please make sure you ask your partner first. You will only have 1 partner.Also before you send your doll name it and share that info with your partner. All dolls have to have names ;)

For hearts you might want to take a look at your partners profile and get color ideas and other ideas from that but that is not a requirement. The real requirement is to make a doll your partner will love.

Ratings 4.7 and up. No Newbies Sorry. No No sends in the past 2 months. I will ban anyone I think is sketchy. Also you must have ratings for at least 2 swaps other than e-mail swaps.

So try as I may it is not going to let me upload an image so here is a place you can see one....

I make a stuffie I call a coocooi it pretty much falls in the ugly doll category. So I guess this should be a breeze.

As far as the ugly dolls are concerned, they kinda have to be the same idea as the Ugly Doll. They donot have to be the same things however.

I just love Ugly Dolls! I think they're adorable. Unfortunately I'm going to have to pass on the swap; I'm already taking part in two rather large swaps and with school starting shortly, I'm going to be rather strapped on time :( If you happen to do a second ugly softie swap please let me know!

Just took a look at your link to the Ugly Dolls.

Those are not ugly dolls.

Those are adorable dolls!

I think that they are cute too. I have no clue why they say they are ugly.

I am thinking about this one! I know I don't have much time to think about it, but I was wondering if they could have buttons for eyes or some such? Or do they have to be all sewn on features?

I love ugly dolls too! there is just something sweet about them. This swap should be fun.

Ask your partner about the eyes. Traditionally they are all sewed features.
