    Screen printing? There's no way you'd ever be able to pull off a patchwork job in a scale THAT small.

    Or, you could use fabric marker, but that would take a LOT of patience.

      I think screen-printing is a good idea, but Jada's idea of fabric markers is a great option if you're artistic. You could use a FTC lab coat as base.

        That is....actually a great idea. For some reason I had visions of having to do the fabric first, then cutting and sewing. But using a lab coat eliminates the last two steps! Brilliant!

          Thanks, I try. I think if one would cut a cardboard insert to keep the coat-shape taut while drawing, the markers would work well.

              Not faithless at all, that's very nice. Just suggesting and expedient option.

                    I stand corrected. PM me please with her contact info. I may want one for the future. BTW, where did that head come from? Was it one of the Bif Bang Pow Dr. Who figures? If it is, I don't remember seeing it.

                          The Ralph head has a Rod Taylor vibe to it, too. With a hair change it would work.
