Handmade rag dolls ...................


                     These are my rag dolls.......
I was told by two customers that they have a retro look about them, I suppose they do in a way.....
I think that is because I tried to make them simple in shape, similar to how children draw people.

The heads and arms are made from curtain weight cotton,the bodies and legs are in various cottons or poly/cotton...
The hair is acrylic yarn....the eyes are felt sewn on with tiny stitches..the other features are embroidered. They are all embellished in a different way with buttons...felt...embroidery...and each has something pretty in their hair.
These dolls are about 12 inches tall.
