Making Dolls

I have a book that I got from my great Aunt, it is from 1977 and has some really fun little dolls in it that I want to make.  My plan is to make some for the nieces and nephews for their birthdays, well at least the ones that are young enough for them. I don't think my nephew who will be turning 12 this year would appreicate a stuffed animal.  -- I have been looking online to see if I can find any fun books or patterns, thinking hard of what I need in case I need to order it and have it shipped here to me. (major disadvantage to living here, you really have to plan ahead when you have a project, you can't find all the stuff you want around the corner at Micheal's, JoAnn's or Walmart).    I find myself going to the thrift shop and when I do find stuff, squirreling it away for later projects.  At least my craft closet it stocked of randmon stuff I might need. 
I thought this page was really neat, showing how to make your own doll hair. I always wondered how my grandma did it when making dolls.
