Spool doll tutorial

I've made up a basic kit for our sewing club to make in July. We are doing Christmas projects during the day, so I've adapted them into angels.

Contents of kit:
7 spools
1 large bead
5 small beads
Waxed thread/cord
Templates for the wings, hair and dress yoke.
Small piece of interfacing (for the yoke if using fabric).

You will also need:
Fabric to make the dress, yoke and wings.
Wool or embroidery thread for the hair.
Glue
Acrylic paint or permanent markers to add face.
Basic sewing kit.

This is how I put it together.

cut thread into 2 equal pieces. Fold each piece in half then adjust so it has approximately 2 inches longer at the top.

Thread on a small bead so it sits on the bottom loop of the cord.

Thread both ends through 2 spools.

Repeat for the other leg.

Thread all 4 cords through a spool.

Find the longer threads to create the arms.

Push the cord back on itself through the spool.

Repeat for the second arm.

Push all 4 cords through the small bead.

(This is the point where you would add the yoke).

Thread on the large bead.
