VINTAGE
STYLE SEWING BOX SET
With so much emphasis on sewing in dollmaking, it is no wonder dollmakers
are also attracted to old fashioned sewing accessories made from scraps
and materials at hand to protect and hold safe these precious items.
I have gathered together a pincushion top sewing box with attached strawberry
emery, two needle cases, a flat style tomato pincushion, and a scissors
case. Available in pattern only version, limited edition kit and finished
as a special gift for yourself or for someone else. Kit has all materials
including the papier-mache foundation box, vintage style mixed prints,
wool roviing to stuff both pincushions, buttons, and other notions.
Finished sets are made up in either reproduction fabrics or vintage
fabrics as shown above and include fancy snipping scissors in the 7-piece
sets.

SPECIAL
EDITION NOAH'S ARK This is a favorite revisited from my old discontinued kits. This pulltoy ark set is very
small and is a good sized toy for smaller dolls especially the Early
American Series or even Hitty, but could be a good toy for any size
doll or Santa. Kit has pulltoy ark with wheels, Noah, and 4 sets of
animals on small bases plus complete paints and instructions. A pretty
easy kit in spite of scale. Ark is about 2 inches long and animals
are less than 1/2" tall.

THE FEEDSACK DOLL
This is one of the best dolls I have ever designed.
She makes up well, with ease, including stuffing, which is usually one
of the hardest parts. She is very old-fashioned in her style and accessories.
Made from a feedsack, an historical detail common to homemade cloth
dolls, she has a charming face which is accomplished easily with an
iron-on transfer and colored pencils applied to her painted cloth finish.
Complete with leather shoes, striped legs and a dress made from my own
fabric. Her hard-to-find vintage style batise and cotton lace underwear
and bonnet, are overdyed with a special new technique included in the
kit. She is 14" tall. NOTE: We are no longer able to provide the wonderful vintage feedsacking for this doll (the modern replacement is awful) and so the fabric provided is a suitable weave that acts the part with ease.

A DOLL FOR DISNEY
In early 2001, I was asked to do a
doll for the Disney movie, "Tuck
Everlasting." The doll originally was to have an important role
and my mission was to make three of the same doll - the first was to
be worn, but as if in the present time of the movie (1820); the second
was to be very tattered and look as if she were 100 years old and the
last was to be used in a house fire into which Sissy Spacek, playing
the mother, runs to rescue the doll because it is so dear to her. When
the movie finally came out in fall of 2002, the doll is only a prop
on a shelf, but for me it did not really matter because I considered
the challenge so great that when I finished with more success than
I felt possible, that became my real reward. The real task for me was
not just making a rag doll of the times with the qualifications handed
to me (only brown for colors and real hair), but to create one which
clearly had the stamp of endearing on her and to take my aging techniques
into new territory such that it would be hard to really tell that the
doll was not old. Her reception at shows proved I was right, for everyone
was drawn to her even when they knew nothing of her connection to a
movie. Favorite details are her wispy hair, sweet countenance and her
worn shoes.
