OLD SANTA ORNAMENT FROM 1992

This Santa ornament was originally made as a limited edition for the League of NH Craftsmen in 1992 as part of their several decades long Annual Ornament and long not available. Over all these years I have several people who contact me each year to see if any have turned up for them to buy. None have, but in my clearing out of attic stuff, found enough pieces to make a small number. These are about 3" tall and each Santa has movable arms, one carrying a wooden star and dove, and on his back, a backpack with a wooden Christmas tree. These may be pre-ordered for a late fall delivery. Due to the small production, his price will be $75.

DOLL'S SEWIES FOR ACCESSORIES (scaled for dolls) ~ These items come as a very sweet and fun kit for small dolls or items can be ordered finished. Early American ladies spent much time on their needlework which was often kept in their pockets (a pouch that hung from their waists). This is a set of working miniature brass scissors and a set of patterns for a tiny scissors case, flat tomato pincushion and a strawberry emery. All items are well under an inch and easy to make from your silk (or cotton) scraps. They are nice to hang from doll's apron waist on a silk ribbon.

Finished Set of flat pincushion, scissors case, scissors, emery was $57, on sale for $38 SOLD OUT

This tiny Pulltoy was made for Hitty's Easter Outfit. These are leftover.Maybe your Hitty would like an Easter present.

INDIVIDUAL SMALL ACCESSORIES

Everything is about 1" tall except the spoolrack, slate, peg wooden and printed cat which are under 2". All of these came from other places in my dollmaking, but I use them over and over in lots of settings, so you might too. The pincushion has real pins, the peg wooden doll is jointed wood, the flat iron is cast for me in darkened pewter, the spoolrack has 5 spools wound with colorful thread and a pincushion on top, the pulltoys are painted wood with real wheels and the spool set has 4 stacked and wound spools.

PRIMITIVE ANIMALS: MY FINISHED SAMPLES AND PATTERNS TO MAKE THEM

I have a small collection of antique primitive cloth animals, but because they are rare, I only have a few - two dogs, two cats, a lamb and one questionable species (dog or rabbit) and a fabulous horse. There is something so straight-to-the-heart about these sweet playthings, often sewn from old coating or other scraps and stuffed with rags or sawdust. Like primitive dolls whose shapes are often pared down to the essentials (keeping in mind that most of these dear things were not made with patterns), it is this naive look that appeals. Most often one finds them in old dirty whites or browns as these coarser weaves were common, so most of mine will also be in these grungy tones. The patterns will inspire you to make them in many types of fabrics, one more endearing than the next. The animals are divided up into two patterns.
