Primitive Folk Art Americana Big Doll Flag



This gal is my most recent creation... I would like to thank Heidi at Crabby Gabby for the wonderful pattern!
She is very large display size doll-she stands just about 31 inches tall. ( 30 3/4 to be exact...)

She is a sturdy gal and is freestanding...she is mounted onto an old antique beehive bobbin ( which appears to
have seen its years of use.. LOL)

that is permanently secured with screws (from the bottom) to a destressed wood
star base. She wears a stained cotton "bloomer" under her skirt which reads the pledge of allegiance...
She is sewm from stained muslin and has a full round-like-a-ball head. Her facial features are all done by hand.

Her nose and brows are needle sculpted to add a bit of dimension and her mouth is stitched with heavy red cotton thread...
Her green eyes are drawn and detailed with artists pencils....
I've also added some shading around her nose and brows and blushed her cheeks for a bit of color....
All of her clothing is made from painted, sanded and aged plain cotton ticking. Her blouse is color washed white
with a gathered bodice and sleeves. Her corset is navy colorwashed with set eyelets and laced up the front with aged
cording. The shoulder straps are red colorwashed ticking.....
Her skirt is painted with alternating red, white and blue stripes. It is a bit stiff from the paint, but I did sand the heck out
of it to help soften it some....
She has a full head of sheeps wool for her hair, dark brown with chocolate tips, which is needlefelted in place...
her bonnet is sewn into place on top.
She has individually stitched fingers on both hands. Her right hand is stiffened so she appears to grasp the flagpole.

As you can see in the in the close-ups, she has some stain birthmarks there....the starch didn't agree with the stain on
that hand apparently. Its mostly visible from the back....When she's holding the pole, you don't see it as much....
Now for Olde Glory...the wood flagpole is 36 inches long by itself. The fabric piece measures 10 1/2 inches x 16 inches.
It is from painted and sanded plain ticking in a Betsy Ross style.


It has two small pockets sewn into the top and bottom
which has wire inside. The wire can be bent into any shape to make the flag appear to be waving, of if you prefer, it can lay
flat. The wire is wrapped through and around the pole to secure it and I did some prim stitchin' down the side to give
it a nice finsh... I have placed a reserve to protect all my time and work invested into her...if she does not sell, she will have
a nice home with me. :o)
She will come to you signed and dated by me......

PRIMITIVE HALLOWEEN CROW AND MOON DOOR HANGER



The crow is made of muslin that was painted black and sanded. It has a separate quilted wing that was handstitched on. The crow's beak is needlesculpted and her eye is an embroidery floss knot.

She is wearing a dirty, grungy witch hat with a primmed cheesecloth hatband that is tied in a knot. The crow is 26 inches long from the tip of it's hat to the end of her broom. The broom is made from a stick from my yard and drieds from one of my ornamental grasses. I also added a bunch of dried sweet annie and orange berries that are also tucked under her wing.


There is a rusty wire on the back for hanging. She is sprinkled with lots of cinnamon for that yummy smell.

The moon is 12 inches tall and is made of muslin that is painted with gold and brown paint mixed with staining mixture and sanded. I added lots of cinnamon to the moon as well. There is also a rusty wire on the back for hanging.
This great Halloween crow and moon prim is from a pattern by Tennessee Ridge Primitives and makes a great holiday display piece.
I am always happy to combine shipping.

PRIMITIVE RAGGEDY SCARECROW ANNIE


What a cutie! Here is Raggedy Scarecrow Annie all set for the Fall Harvest! I just love the way she turned out and you will too!
She is my original design and completely handmade by me!

Annie is approximately 16 Inches tall, and I've made her of tea dyed cotton. I've weighted Annie so she sits nicely. I've hand painted her face to look like a scarecrow; hand sewn her Raffia Straw Hair. I've made her dress of blue denim and a plaid homespun for her shirt. Her 'loons are made from rust colored cotton and coordinate with her plaid shirt. I've hand painted her brown boots and orange leg stripes.

I've made her a Scarecrow's hat out of a brown suede like fabric and given it a hat band that matches her shirt. She has a little Crow friend that likes to accompany her. My pictures really do not do her justice! She is much cuter in person!

She wears a primitive "Harvest Blessings" tag. Included with Scarecrow Annie and her little Crow are 3 handmade pumpkins and a 12" x 6" x 6" straw bale.
She would be a welcome addition for the Prim Doll collector, or as your latest Harvest Decoration.

Primitive blue-eyed Raggedy



This 13" bundle of sweetness is made from premium coffee dyed muslin and is dressed in a cute plisse red dotted bodice with red poppy skirt.
She has painted sock stripes and shoes. I used prismatics for her eyes and shading, stitching and painting and then sealed.

Hanna has a round metal edged tag pinned with her name and a grungy hang tag that says "Little Miss Happy". I have needlefelted black wool roving to her head and signed and dated her as well.
Hanna was made from a pattern by "Bowls-n-Annies". Thanks for looking!
