Member and fabric doll artist Faydra Jones gave a program on her charming creations, inspired by the Waldorf doll.
The Waldorf doll is used in the Waldorf education system, which is based on the educational philosophy developed by Austrian Rudolf Steiner. These soft dolls are made out of wool and cotton and are intentionally very simple to encourage creative play.
Faydra described how she makes her dolls, using natural cotton and wool.
Faydra hand processes and spins her own fiber and yarn. She brought her spinning wheel and gave a demonstration to the club. You can find out more about Faydra's dolls at her website, With Love, Hannah.
