FROM THE NURSERY RHYME-FAIRY TALE SERIES ~ WEE WILLIE WINKIE
Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,
Up stairs and down stairs in his night-gown.
Tapping at the window, crying at the lock,
Are the children in their bed, for it's past ten o'clock?
BEING DISCONTINUED - LAST ONES AVAILABLE AT SALE PRICE
This one is my version of Wee Willie Winkie, an old Scottish nursery rhyme much longer in its original form first published in 1841 and sung as a lullaby. My Wee Willie Winkie is the same 3.5" as the other dolls in the Nursery Rhyme Series which began with Little Red Riding Hood. He has curly toed slippers, a knit and tasseled nightcap and a hand-dyed outfit of a tucked gown over bloused pants and carries a tiny wooden lantern. He comes with the wooden stand. $235. On sale for $195. Add to Cart |

THE LAST TINY DOLLS IN THE NURSERY RHYME-FAIRY TALE SERIES ~ JACK AND JILL
(A few sets left on sale)
My newest nursery rhyme characters are the well known Jack and Jill. The two-doll set comes on a wooden stand and both are holding a tiny red pail. The inspiration for their clothing was taken from paintings by Kate Greenaway with most of the fabrics and trims specially hand dyed here in my workshop to get the look. Like all the other dolls in this Tiny Doll Series, these too are 3.5" tall. This set, unlike the others, will be limited in number to 24 total.
• Jack and Jill Set with stand regular price is $435. On sale $375 Add to Cart

THE 17" QUILTED SANTA
This painted cloth-faced Santa shows off his quilted and pieced robe
on a uniquely constructed body that allows him to stand by himself,
through a special technique of weighting his feet. His wonderful
presence is created by the layers of clothing and the many fabrics
that go into his robe. Easy 4-patch quilt construction is used to
create the "fabric"
for his robe. A few options are included for accessories as well.
This pattern can provide many many looks from vintage country to
Victorian by just altering the fabric choices. Included in the Mini Kit are wood
soles, bearding, all paints, face stencil, wires for arms, a hard-to-find
antiqued belt buckle and instructions for how to make his address
book. The pattern only has full instructions and patterns plus the face stencil.

KIT FOR ALL THE FABRICS
- Sale for only 4 available packs
I have assembled a limited edition of all of the fabrics (about
70) necessary to make this santa in the old browns palette that
I used. The 60 squares used to make the 4-patch quilt for his robe
are from my own stash of many years and all pre-cut, many overdyed,
ready to sew. Except for a few accessories, everything is here,
including body fabric, lead feet, leather for his belt, fabrics
for shoes, stockings, pants, tunic, sack and cap with floss for
the tassel. For all other accessories besides fabrics, visit the Just
For Santas page. This fabric kit is optional (or you can gather
all your own fabrics), but does not include the mini-kit
above, so you will need both.

SPECIALS FOR THE MAKERS OF MY KITS - OLD DISCONTINUED KITS AVAILABLE
 o
A continuation of a procrastination project to hoe out the many boxes of parts of discontinued kits and their finished versions mostly for cloth dolls. It is daunting to pick through deciding what can be sold or given away or sadly taken to the dump. These are some of much more to come as I get more time. When partially worked dolls are included, I figure there are those out there who know my work and can make use of.
The kits listed below (between the dotted lines) only have ONE of each available. Each is a complete kit with original materials and all paints have been replaced with fresh. All prices shown will not have further discounts.
Please note that I will be adding to this list more items in time.

TWO NOAH'S ARKS KITS BEING DISCONTINUED
SPECIAL
EDITION PULLTOY 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. Kits were $48.

PRINTED
DOLL APRONS - There is something so dear about doll
aprons, bonnets and shoes. These are aprons popular in the
late 1800's which show up on many antique dolls, notably, Izannah
Walkers, Springfield Woodens and many others. This is a common
design - there were many - that I adapted and now print out
in brown on extra fine overdyed batiste (for drape). These
are mini-kits to make your own with sewing template, instructions,
pre-printed and pre-overdyed (antique white) apron fronts plus
lining and button for waistband. Even Hitty has one her size.
Lengths are given so you can better gauge the
size your doll might need.

MOHAIR FOR DOLL HAIR - This is a smooth but not the silky more realistic kind known as "English" mohair and therefore best for cloth dolls.It is slightly woolier than the English, but much easier to work with. You can see it here in auburn on a Basic Doll and it was also used for Lotties and many of my angels.
SPECIAL OFFER - I have a huge supply of the Auburn and Brown roving from the old days of many kits having it included in the kit supplies, and need to clear out some. 5 yard bags $10.95. REDUCED MORE TO $8.95
