Description:

Hi everyone.

I originally had "experienced dotee makers" here, but anyone interested in dotees can sign up. It will be in the theme of a baby doll, dotee style. Do a search on www.youtube.com for dotee dolls and you can see how to make a dotee doll.

Give her a bottle, teddy bear, maybe the fabric reminds you of a baby, put a barette in her hair... etc. Or even make it a boy baby dotee doll. That would be fun. A diaper on a dotee or just a diaper safety pin? Hmmm, be creative. This sounds fun. I often hear dotee doll makers call their dotees "babies", so... here is your chance to start making a baby dotee. The baby dotees do not have to be pink and blue, just have something to do with a newborn or baby. You have until May 1st to make the baby dotee, but you do not need to wait that long to mail it out. This is to give you time to make her/him.

  • The regular rules come along with making a dotee. They should be around 4 to 6 inches tall, with a hanger and a tail. Please include a hanger. If it is your trademark to leave it off, please don't sign up, OR just make an exception for this one swap. Thank you.

  • You will have 1 partner and this will be international. The dotees are light enough to mail to another country.

People who have a 4.8 rating or higher can join. Absolutely no "no sends" on your record. You should have, at least, 5 satisfactory swaps on your record and that does NOT count email swaps. If you really want to join, please pm me and I will consider each situation.

Have fun, sign up, and I hope this will be a fun dotee doll swap for those who sign up.

-PLEASE DO NOT FLAKE. If you cannot make the deadline, which is May 1, 2009, please let me and your partner know.

Thanks for looking.

I would love any kind of dotee, but if my partner wants a challenge, I collect CRYING babies. So a sad face on mine would be most welcome. But if you want to make a happy one, it can be my "good" baby!!!

This is lovely! I would love a sleeping baby if at all possible, but whatever you send will be lovely!

Yay! I'm glad you guys liked this swap. I just made that one on the swap here this weekend and thought to do a baby dotee swap on here. I'm not even a mother! Ha!

Look on my flickr site. I have the baby dotee and blankie, diaper bag and accessories on there. It's been sent for a swap but might give someone an idea. =)

maryb221 03/17/2009 #

I've got a couple of baby dotees on my flickr site, too. I bet we see many other types of baby dotees here, too!

Hi I am new to swap bot. I know it is cheeky to ask but I would love to join this swap. I won't dissapoint you and please have a look at my flickr site. Please....?

BlackWolf 03/23/2009 #

I am moving this to my watchlist as I am filled up, lol - I will rejoin once closer to the sign up date =D

maryb221 03/24/2009 #

Hi Tara. That's fine. It's easy to get filled up on swaps here, that's for sure. I can always do this swap again sometime, too, if you're still filled up.

Pam 03/25/2009 #

Got this on my watchlist.. i'm filled up for now but hope to join this one. i love dotees, baby ones sounds like soooo much fun to make.

magicjessnrach 03/25/2009 #

Well I would have joined but I guess I'm not wanted...no hangers is my trademark and it will stay that way, LOL!!!

Why did you say experienced dotee makers? I have in my collection over 100 and most made by newbies or first time doll making of any kind.

ladydy5 03/27/2009 #

I also agree that to be a "dotee" there are specifications. Size, hanger and tail. I started out that way then I added my own type of face and have made some smaller than regular size.

maryb221 03/27/2009 #

Okay, yes. You're right, some of what I have are by newbies. I was a newbie just a few months ago to dotees. I've got about 40 in my collection. Maybe more people will sign up with the change in my description here.

Thank you for noting the hangers. I really am disappointed when I don't get a hanger as that is how they are displayed. So, I have to add one, and then it isn't made by the person fully. also, on my watch list.

justj 03/30/2009 #

I agree with WarLordsWife...i am disappointed also when there is no hanger as that is how i display them. I don't like to have to add one! Most of my collection are made by newbies too!

maryb221 03/31/2009 #

In my opinion, it isn't a dotee unless it has a hanger and a tail. That's why I made note here in the requirements for the swap.
