Humpty Dumpty Doll

Ever since Jellybean saw the Wiggles' song version of Humpty Dumpty, it has been one of her favorite songs. Every night before going to bed, I sing it to her and pretend to drop her when I sing the lyric, "Humpty Dumpty had a great faaaaalllll." Because she loves Humpty so much, I decided that I would make her one. Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall...
and Humpty Dumpty after his great faaaaalllll...
Poor Humpty! It's nice to know that after Humpty gets cracked, we can fix him again though.
Jellybean is in love. Come back tomorrow for the pattern and tutorial. It's been a true labor of love.

ETA: The pattern and tutorial is now available HERE!

Have a Happy Day!

    Oh, I LOVE it! I'll be back tomorrow. My little ones are a bit too old for it--but, it's a great gift idea!

    The Humpty Dumpty doll is adorable! You did a great job on that. I love the cracks on one side. That is so creative. Jellybean is very lucky.

    The doll is so cute! My kids are never too old for a little nursery rhyme fun. Plus I can have my 8 year old brush up on some sewing skills while helping me put the doll together. Thank you for linking up this week to my Enchanted Thursdays Blog Hop!

      Thanks for visiting! My sewing skills are about on par with an 8 year old (I'm not kidding), so it should be a cinch. ;)

    Oh goodness! My daughter had a "Dumpty" as a child that I made for her. Her birthday is this week and trust me ... she's a fully grown adult. This brought back such wonderful memories, thanks so much ~ Mary
