But this is still a project that even the complete beginner is going to find very straightforward.
And you will have to admit that Mum does have attitude!
There are plenty of handy tips in the book including how to make the round plugs for Mum's eyes. No lathe needed.
Baby's eyes are burnt on with a home made pyrography pen. A piece of bent wire and a candle? Too easy.
Full details and instructions, as always, are included with the pattern.
