  start with making your design , or use mine.
  My doll is 12cm x 10 cm or almost 5 inches x 4inches
  the heart is 2 cm x 2,2 cm or lesser then 1 inch x 1inch.
  so when you use my pattern make with your printer it that sizes.
  cut it out
  and draw it when you will make more then one it from scaps of cerealboxes. cut it out.

  Step 2

  Lay a piece of baking paper on your iron board and on that the tree boring plastic bags.
  on top again a piece of baking paper.
  Set your iron on the lowest stand, to start with,
  by the thin plastic bags it works on this position, when you use the thicker ones set your flat iron a tiny bit warmer.
  always move the whole time your flat iron when you are fusing the bags togehter.
  I've not then they will meting away.LOL
  then start on the top of the piece of paper to iron the bags together.
  when you have done one side turn it over and do the other site.

  Because i had at that moment serious problems with my longs i couldn't seal all the heart on the body.

  Sew this site too.
  no 10.

  sew on one side of the doll parts on the left side of it some nooses of knitting yarn , so your coockie friend will have some hair on is head;-D
  Notion make the sewing stich some smaller so the yarn is better fixed on the head by the stiches. I made the loops while i was sewing the yarn down, but mayby that’s too difficult for some of you then you must pin them at first and then sewing it down.:-D
