HOW-Tq SEW lr Ruth Wycth Spears iaw rACirv, ) USE SOFT0f?CRAiSN Li wire, draw rrriiji d& UP TIGHTLY AN- I TWIST ENDS AROUND TAIL CORD CO MANY readers have asked for more spool ideas after seeing see-ing the directions for spool shelves in Sewing Book No. 3, that I know you will love making these amusing toys. The two spools for the doll's arms are strung together with cord. Start with these, then bend the body wire over the center of the cord. Run both ends of the wire through the two body spools, then bend the wires and run them through the spools for the legs. Bend in flat loops for the feet. Twist wire around the bonnet spool and fasten to body tightly so the bonnet tips up at the back. Cut a face out of a fashion magazine maga-zine or draw one and paste it on the front of the bonnet spool. The dress is of two straight pieces; the bright sash and bonnet ribbons rib-bons match. One end is cut off the spool for the dog's head. Bend the wire over the whiskers, then run both ends through the head and neck spools. Run one end through the two leg spools, then both through the body and one through the back spool. Twist together around the tail.
