milk filter bed dolls

I have never heard of these dolls before either, but they are lovely. Looks like a lot of work though.

Hi,

I am new to this forum but I found it in search of these filter dolls. My mom and I use to make them years ago and I can only remember in bits and pieces on how to make them. I thought we had used cone coffee filters, had cut top part off in like a half circle. I believe we then used those hole punchers to make it easier to string the yarn through. Also, I remember we used dye with water to make different colors. They were so beautiful.

In reading the posts here, I found that some people use to use milk filters and I found a place where you can purchase them if interested at: Hoegger Goat Supply

I myself am looking for any doll patterns such as this, since my mom lost hers.

Thanks,

I remember that my mother had a couple of them years ago. I hope to find the time to make one. Her birthday is in April, and this would be the perfect gift.

These are neat. Thank you for sharing the pictures. I had never heard of these.

Love these dolls. Annies Attic had the pattern and milk filters a while back. I think next time I will try and make a few. Thanx for the share.
