I have been playing around with making a doll's head. Looking at how Waldorf Dolls are constructed, I made the first part of the head int he same way. But needlefelting wasn't working for me, so I switched to stitching cotton batting for the sculpting. I also stretched and stitch the jersey knitted fabric over, but didn't like that. This last stage is where I glued the knitted fabric. It is interesting how much the features even out with the fabric on top. I am not happy with this head, but it is a start in working out construction.
