Here are my latest creations. I want to make a pilgrim boy too, but I haven't had much time lately.

No, I've been making the wooden bodies myself and then using heavy floral wire for the legs. The feet are 3/4 inch dowels cut in half and the ankles are small dowels hollowed out by the drill, so the floral wire can be glued inside. I tried using some of the half egg wood pieces as feet, but I couldn't get the drill to go though them and gave up. the set of half eggs with my bad drilling attempt became breasts for my pirate mama doll ( but she ended up with so much outfit you can't tell she has them).
