Free Tutorial - Using turning tools

I bought my set of turning tools at Joann's - it comes with 3 tubes and 3 dowels, each different sizes depending on the size of your arms and legs. Here's a picture of what one size looks like (and my hemostats):


To use:1. Begin by putting the tube inside one of the arms or legs.


2. Push it all the way in until one end of the tube is “touching” the top seam.


3. Use the dowel and push through the fabric into the tube opening.

4. Push all the way until the arm is now turned RSO (Right Side Out).


5.Use the dowel to “smooth” out the inside seams and push out the thumb.


6. You can turn the doll body RSO just by using your fingers or hemostats. Smooth with the dowel too.
