It took me almost 2 hours and my "mouse" hand is numb but I finished the tutorial and learned a lot of little tricks along the way. I'm off to use those tricks to make something else.

thanks again for finding the tutorial.

Been at this for quite a while today, also, and this is what I came up with trying to make it look the same, yet mine has a totally different personality of her own. ha ha I learned ALOT!!! Eyelashes were tricky...I think I will save them to my shapes file and never have to make them again :)

Just remember if you use any of these images that they are CR to the designer, not me, but the tutorial designer! Many thanks to her.

You made it...yes, most definate credit to the tutorial designer, but yo to you the one who learned how to do it yourself! That is to your credit. That is YOUR Kokeshi Doll. Might look like hers but YOU put the circles and the stretch on the circles on the board!

She would not probably want credit for mine...look at that mouth...and I did not take the stroke outline off...I am an amateur.

Great dolls everyone. Love the nose Jo-anne. I have to be honest, I'm not real fond of faces that don't have noses or mouths. The Kokeshi dolls don't bother me that much, but that popular stamp with the little girl without a mouth...YIKES! It totally creeps me out.
