I've been making a few of these for friends and neighbors who are having a frustrating time this winter. It's brought a smile to almost everyone's face! You can purchase them on a number of sites on the web, or you can make your own. You can do a google search for the poem, too, although I've included it at the end of this post to make it more convenient. This one is for my sister, she asked for a red one! Print out the pattern above. There is a 1" test square so you can adjust your printer, but it doesn't matter that much. The dolls can be any size. If you normally sew alot, the pattern is probably all you need. If you want to see how I do the hair, it's shown at the end of the post. Pin your pattern and cut out with scissors. I'm a fan of rotary cutters, but not when the curves are this tight! All cut out. Transfer the marks to the upper arm so you don't sew there. Dammit! I forgot to sew on the face before I started sewing! It's easiest to sew the eyes and mouth on before you sew the doll together. You can do it after, no worries, but it's easier when you don't have to bury the knot. Set your stitch length to 1.5 (or whatever a small stitch length is on your machine). It makes it easier to sew around the curves smoothly. Sew all the way around the doll and clip the seams. You can see the little clips on the inside seams. I clip everywhere there is an inside seam so rounded seams are smoother when you are done stuffing. I also trim really close to the outside curving seams (you can see how close I clipped the seam around the head.) Turn it right side out. I use a tube to help turning it right side out, but using a dowel or the eraser end of a pencil works fine, too. Stuff! I use some poly fill, but you can take apart an old stuffed animal and re-use the stuffing, or use pieces of quilt batting. The photos I took of stitching up the open seam were terrible! Sorry about that. Do the neatest job you can sewing up the seam. Now for the Hair Wrap about 10 wraps of Lion Brand Fun Fur (or whatever yarn you have in your stash) around you hand. The more open your hand is, the longer the strands of 'hair' you will have. Slip the yarn off your hand and use your sewing machine on a straight stitch to sew right through the middle of your yarn. Sorry about the fuzzy photo, if you look closely you can see the white stitching line that goes through the yarn to secure it. Hand stitch the hair in place along the stitching line on the yarn. This isn't some wonderfully, fantastic doll, it's supposed to be whacked! Don't worry about perfection on this one! Sometimes I trim the hair, sometimes I don't. This doll's hair was sooooo wonky and long that I trimmed it to make it look better. The Poem Tag Crumple up a piece of paper bag. Iron it flat, but not too flat. Print out the poem, rip around the edges (poem is below). Coat both the paper bag and the poem with a thin layer of rubber cement and let it dry. Then put the poem on the rubber cement. Rub the extra rubber cement off the brown paper bag. Rip close to edges of the poem, punch a hole, add some twine, and the tag is done! Click on the photo, then download and print. I took longer to take the photos and write the post than it did to make the doll. It's a pretty quick project. Honestly, I hope you don't need one! And that no one you know needs one! But just in case you do, it's a fast, fun project to make.
A yarn doll is quick and easy to make and is a fantastic use for leftover yarn from other projects. Fully detailed tutorial and free printables.

A wonderful variation on our Dammit Doll – learn to make this and get your frustrations out!
This pattern makes great little Dammit Dolls for stressful people and can be thrown, jabbed, stomped and even strangled till all the frustration leaves you. We have included a dammit doll poem with some fun variations of the poem too.
Perfect teacher gift!! Dammit Doll OR Gosh, dang, darn OR Ding, dang, darn it Doll (or Mermaid)! One of a kinds. I have just made a few. If you would like one of these please select it from the Variation option (there is only 1 of each doll). As they sell and I make new ones, I will update the selections and pictures often. If you put one in your cart and wait to order please look back at the pictures to make sure you get the right one. My stock is one of each of the pictured dolls, If you would like multiple similar dolls send me a note and I will check my fabric stock. If you would like one customized, let me know and I will try to make it perfect for you. Once I'm sure I can make it I will add a customized option to order. I have had requests for the card included with the dolls to not say dammit (i.e. it is for a child) so I have edited versions of the poem to accommodate that. Please select which card you would like to ship with your doll. The original Dammit poem or the revised Gosh or Ding poems as shown in the pictures. Awesome gift!

“When you have come to the edge of all light that you know and you are about to drop off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: there will be something solid to stand on or you will be taught to fly.”~ Patrick Overton
Questioning your place in life, your worth, or your purpose? These little monster buddies are here to demolish those negative emotions and bring a smile to your face. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: 1. Start each day with a smile and a "Hello, Little Buddy!" 2. Tell them your deepest, darkest secrets (they can keep their mouths shut!) 3. Vent your frustrations (they're great listeners!) 4. Sing them a song. 5. And remember - they love you unconditionally! Each one is unique and created with happiness inside! Stands approximately 8 to 10 inches tall.
Probably about 15 years ago; anyway long before I had a personal computer or had even heard of the the world wide web, I made my mum a doll, a dammit doll. She was pretty funky with mad hair and a heart embroidered onto her bottom. I honestly don't know where I found the words that went with her ~ mum loved her and I am prety sure she used her more than a few times for her intended purpose. I made another the other week to send to a friend ( I had to get mum to send me a picture of my original one so I could make a pattern). I took pictures along the way just in case someone else needed to vent a little frustration. You will need some fabric, anything you fancy really, I used cotton calico both times. Umm threads, scissors, pins, stuffing, some kind of yarn for hair...think that is about it. Download the pattern template from here. Double your fabric over, right sides together and trace around the templates onto the fabric with a pencil or marker (you will need two arms so trace two sets). Before cutting, machine sew, with a small straight stitch, on your trace lines ~ make sure you leave the top of the arms and where marked on the body, open for turning and later joining. Cut out your pieces with a small seam allowance and turn them right way out. You might need to use a knitting needle or chopstick to smooth the inner seams. Stuff the arms about two thirds up the length, pin the top ~ compare your arms to make sure they are even then baste across your pin line, set them aside. Now stuff your body, poke your stuiffing down into the legs with that knitting needle or chopstick you used earlier. Fill up her tummy and head til you like the feel of her. Next, making sure you turn her arms so that her thumbs are facing in by her side, stuff the empty arm segment into her armpit and sew her arms to her body using a ladder or some other invisible stitch. Next pin along her groin as is marked on the pattern and sew a running stitch through both front and back layers of fabric and the stuffing ~ it gives her a better shape. At this point she makes a rather funny voodoo pincushion...which reminds me I'm hosting a pincushion swap this month ~ want to join in the fun? have a look here. Now, to embellish! I am partial to the belly button, almost all my dolls get one. This is only a little doll so a neat little bullion belly button does nicely. First make a stitch as long as you think you need a belly button to be, but don't come all the way through the fabric. Wrap your thread around the needle 8-10 times then hold them taught and pull your needle and thread through the loops. Curl it round and secure it. (I am quite sure if you google bullion stitch you will get a far better explanation and probably even a step by step video!) On to her face. I drew very lightly with pencil to give myself something to work with. Then back stitched a black outline and filled in with colour. I gave her bottom a little tattoo ~ she was made with love. Hair! I used a spun silk mess ~ see! I managed to unknot it enough to get a dozen or so lengths to work with. I doubled the lengths and with a sharp needle and thread stitched her hair along the seam. When her hair was all done I gave her to the wee girl for a few wacks against the table (needed to check durability) She whizzed her about so fast she is a mere blurr! So I slowed her down for a final picture! When you want to throw the phone And kick the desk and shout. Here's a littlt "Dammit Doll" You cannot live without. Just grasp it firmly by the legs And find a place to slam it, And as you whack the stuffing out Yell DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT. And that pincushion swap is still open

Today’s fabulous find was brought to my attention on Facebook . I had never heard of a Dammit Doll and thought they were funny looking. In doing my research I found this doll could be very useful especially when mad instead of hitting or punching others. I keep mine in my home office on my desk. I

A stuffed therapy figure to help you get rid of your stress and anger! The figure is approximately 8" x 4" These are individually handcrafted so there may be some minor differences from the photo Comes with an attached instruction card that reads When your temper is about to boil, You want to scream and shout! Here's a little Dammit Doll You cannot be without Just grasp it firmly by a leg And find a place to slam it, And as you whack the stuffing out... Yell, "Dammit, Dammit, Dammit!" If dammit's not a word you say, Just grab its little neck, Then just murmur quietly "Oh, Heck! Oh, Heck! Oh, Heck!"
Okay, so these stress dolls kiiiiiinda look like VooDoo dolls. Because, well, what cuts out the stress more than a little fake VooDoo? Now, I’m not going to get into all of that hocus pocus voodoo stuff. That’s just not my interest area. I just know that when I’m stressed out, it’s nice to haveRead more
