Assembling a doll - Nuken kasaamista

I assembled this Wilfred doll kit, which I have bought from Tower House Dolls. I used pipe cleaners and felt fabric for making the body. The funny thing was that I had watched " Mary Shelley's Frankenstein" (the Kenneth Branagh version) on tv the previous day, and when I was sewing my doll together, I could not help thinking about Victor Frankenstein piecing his frightening creature. But luckily my doll did not turn out to be a monster! ;-)
Kokosin tämän Wilfred-nukkekitin, jonka olin ostanut Tower House Dolls -kaupasta. Käytin vartalon tekemiseen piippurasseja ja huopakangasta. Oli hassua, että olin katsonut tv:stä " Mary Shelley's Frankenstein" -elokuvan (Kenneth Branaghin version) edellisenä päivänä, ja nukkea kokoon ommellessani en voinut olla ajattelematta Victor Frankensteinia kasaamassa pelottavaa oliotaan. Mutta onneksi nukestani ei tullut hirviötä! ;-)
Hyvää Suomen  itsenäisyyspäivää!

Thank you! Russ: the next step is to decide the colour of his hair. I have not been able to make up my mind about it yet. But maybe he does not need any hair at all!?
