Default Red Riding Hood Doll Finished!
I just finished this doll for my daughter's birthday this coming weekend. It is the most complex and hardest toy I have ever made (and I've made a bunch!). The pattern is by British toy designer Alan Dart.

My daughter danced the part of Red Riding Hood in the Sleeping Beauty Ballet that Ballet Mississippi performed. She was about 16 years old. I designed and made her costume, and that of the wolf and the cats. It was a grand performance and my favorite part that she ever danced. I've always wanted to make her a doll to commemorate it. Now she's turning 33 and will finally get her doll.
