My first idea for the miscarriage comfort doll.
This idea is very simple, I would create a simple oval body shape and attach a round head, both out of wood.
This doll will have no face - the purpose of this is to follow my initial idea of not being able to lead grieving women into a false sense of security.
I would then knit / crochet a baby blanket.
So the wooden figure will be wrapped up in something soft and comforting.
This idea would be totally made out of wood, and it would also be virtually flat. So this would not be the type of doll to hold. This would be purely decorative.
This miscarriage doll will not have hands, feet, hair or a face.
Because people are fascinated with, and love babys feet and hands, because they are so small.
So, following what I set myself to do I am making the doll so it will not give a false sense of security.
