Mary Poppins Doll

I have been wanting to make Mary Poppins doll for a while, so I was really excited when a sweet mama from Winnipeg contacted me about making a custom Mary Poppins doll for her little one.

This is the outfit from the "Spoon Full of Sugar" scene. I knew she needed a lacy blouse, red bow tie, navy skirt, and of course, the magic carpet bag.

Blue eyes and brown hair with buns and pin curls, too.

Here's a peek at what she looked like in-progress:

Her skirt is made from the pant leg of a pair of shorts.

Her carpet bag was made from this gorgeous designer sample from my sister.

At some point, I want to do another version of this doll, but with the cherry-festooned hat and parrot umbrella.

I'm dying to know: what story book character would you like to see me make next? Let me know in the comments!
