PRIMITIVE FOLK-ART PRAIRIE DOLL *ENID*



WELCOME,







Welcome,

I have added a new 1800's Prairie Doll I have named Enid, She is 23 inches in height and lightly weighted. Enid is made totally from cloth that has been hand dyed using walnuts which is a natural dye with no chemicals. The face of this Prairie doll is needle sculpted and hand painted using watercolors, Enid's ears were also needle sculpted and stitched to her head. I have needle stitched her expressive mouth and eyebrows before they were painted.

Enid has chubby little hands with separate fingers. Her hair is made from golden dyed flax yarn that has been hand stitched to her head and then braided.

Enid's outfit consists of muslin pantaloons, over the pantaloons she is wearing a precious dress that was handmade and hand embroidered, it also has short sleeves and a med. blue edged collar. I have added a handmade homespun jumper with a medium and tan plaid design. Enid is also wearing a sweet homespun Prairie Bonnet (made by me) and a pair of vintage socks.

This sweet little prairie doll comes with her Valentine's heart Kitty I have made out of dark red and black soft flannel with a hand stitched face.

Enid comes signed and dated in her special box, she is nicely and securely packaged for her trip home.

     If you are interested in purchasing Enid, she is now on  http://earlywork-nimblefingerskeepsakes.blogspot.com/

1800's ERA PRIMITIVE PRAIRIE DOLL *EMMA JANE*


*Emma Jane* is now Sold*  Thank you




Prairie Rag Doll Emma Jane

Emma Jane is 24 inches in height, she is lightly weighted and will sit nicely anywhere you care to place her.

Emma is made out of lightly hand dyed woven cotton, she is stuffed with both polyfil and rag strips to give her a old Rag Doll feel.  Her features are hand painted in a water color tecnique, I also applied a spray presuritive to keep her features for years to come.

Emma's hair is dyed flax which came out of an old Mill in Uxbridge, Massachusetts.  I have hand stitched her hair to her head and tied part of it up with dyed grocers string.  Emma Jane has separately hand stitched fingers and her hands cup nicely to hold her cat doll on her lap.

Emma Jane is wearing a prairie dress made out of fine cotton calico, I have hand made the bias around the neckline out of the same material and also added ruffles to the sleeves.  Over her dress is a hand dyed and worn looking prairie apron that ties in the back.  The wide brimmed prairie bonnet and matching pantaloons are made from fine, soft mustard designer flannel.  Emma's dark brown herringbone shoes are completely hand stitched and also made out of the best flannel.

Kitty Cat is made out of black woven cotton, she has shoe button eyes and a hand stitched face and is Sooooo Cute.

         Emma Jane can be purchased for $140.00 + shipping

To adopt this unique Rag Prairie Doll please email me at:   www.jodro860@aol.com

All my dolls are signed and dated..Emma Jane is signed on the back of her neck.

As always, I thank you so much for dropping by.
