This mermaid is made from an altered Dolls and Daydreams pattern. I made the pattern head more narrow and the arms a bit wider. The tail part is my design.
The tail is one piece (one front and back). I added a piece of quilt batting to the tail section before turning. Then top stitched so that the fins would not get stuffed.
The face is hand embroidered and the hair is made from my all time favorite fabric line, Out to Sea by Sarah Jane. The yarn is multi-colored and "hairy".
I loved her. She kept me company in my craft room for at least a month before she went to her forever home (another mermaid lover). I hope she gets lots and lots of love!
Happy Creating!
