A few years ago I created Juana, who is a character inspired by the pink quinoa from Junín, Peru. She is part of the Guardians of Quinoa Collection. At that time I made it little size (5.11 in), now I will increase its size so that you can see more details.
When you design a doll, there are different ways to start. This time, I started with the head. Giving it a flattened shape, this has a huge meaning for me and I think every designer knows why he gives it a certain shape or certain kind of stitches and where it should go...This redesign will be big for me, that's why I'm using the mitten style hands.
Guardians of Quinoa is characterised by the colors of the Quinoa plant as part of its identity and to promote the genetic biodiversity of this food. For this design, the turquoise color brings out the pink tones.
Redesigning a character from the past allows me to incorporate new techniques learnt and Juana is coming with everything. There will be a pattern soon, hopefully before June.
