Instructions

For skirt:
Cut a circle out of piece of floral fabric (diameter 10 cm) , cut a smaller circle(diameter 1.5 cm) from the centre of the larger circle to leave you with a donut shape. To decorate the skirt use flower shapes you have cut out from a piece of floral fabric, appliqué then onto the white skirt with a simple running stitch. Put the wooden peg through the small centre circle, use a running stitch around the circle and pull tight to secure skirt shape to the peg. Add four rhinestones to the skirt as per manufacturers instructions.

For top:
Cut a rectangle shape (6cm by 3cm) from anchor embroidery fabric. Fold over the top edge of the fabric to neaten, wrap the piece around the wooden peg and secure the seam at the back to the peg using a basic hemming stitch.

For wrap:
use the piece of red leather, wrap around the peg and stitch in place with plum embroidery thread.

Decoration:
add button, sequins and French knots to embellish the leather wrap. Give her a necklace by tying a string of 10 small beads around her neck.

Hair and face:
cut enough pearl cotton thread(309) into strands 4cm to make hair- glue onto ball of the peg and draw on her face(as shown in photograph).

Hat:
use the centre of the circle from the skirt, ruche slightly and add a rhinestone as per instructions, glue little hat onto head of the dolly to finish off your peg lady.
