This kit, evolved from my dollmaking retreats, makes a 12” cloth doll with a molded papier-mâché head from my original molds made just for this kit - similar to my first 14” limited edition ones (different molds and size). Like dolls in this medium from the 1800’s, these have hand-stitched fingers in painted cloth made to look and feel like authentic leather ones true to this type of doll. Painting made easy by detailed charts and close-up photos - mistakes are easily rectified. Her hair is mohair made into a wig on a linen foundation you will mold (different styles are offered including a curled type). Although all other supplies and notions are given, besides stuffing, you will need to choose your own dress and optional apron fabrics, since these choices will make each doll individual. This doll will be a treasure. Originally offered in 2000.
