Sewing with Tanka Doll
To get started all you need is thread, needle, scissors and of course me. Follow the stitch patterns on the dress I am wearing, study the technique and begin sampling the same on my spare dress. 
Think of the spare dress as a canvas to explore, learn and experiment. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes you can always get another spare dress from us. 
Once you are done sampling, you will have a basic understanding of the technique and have created a new dress for me using the Tanka. 
Hand sewing is a skill that is useful, comes handy to mend or fix. It is also a fun way to explore your creative side, a relaxing hobby and a stress buster to some. 
Begin learning craft of the two hands now!
 
Making of Tanka Doll
I am about 8 inches tall. I come in a multipurpose cloth bag, wearing a removable 100% Cotton dress, that is hand sewn using a basic stitch. I come in six different forms/versions, grown out of the basic stitches that are fundamental techniques of hand sewing/ embroidery.
I am meticulously handcrafted by a group of women artisans from village Ghasipura, U.P.  These women upcycle Kacha Tanka fabric waste into beautiful things, and I am their latest creation.
Make me a part of your home/lives now!
