Entry to the artist contest at the Peterborough Doll Show on June 13th 2026.
If you are attending the awards dinner, you will be charged half the entry price.
This is a new category for the amazing artists who knit, sew and crochet for reborn dolls!
Your entry can be anything from a blanket, to a full layette, to a crocheted toy.
We will be looking at overall quality, design and originality.
Please select the category you would like to enter. If your item is a mix of two mediums (aka sewn sets with crocheted parts) please enter the category that makes up the majority of your project.
