Oddfellow's Sophie + Hannah Dolls!

August 27, 2009

Some girls 1761

I'm so excited to share all the new dollies that will be part of tomorrow's shop update with you guys!

Some girls 1751  Some girls 1747 

Some girls 1749 Some girls 1754 

Sophie Dolls measure approx 18" tall from tip of toes to top of head. They are each an edition of 1, and are crafted from wool felt, new and vintage cottons, custom fabrics, muslin, and are stuffed plump with poly-fil. Each has an entirely hand-painted face.

All of the Sophie dolls are sporting fully removable little woolen capelets, which close with a vintage brass button. They've also got their (also removable) little badges, comprised of my illustration of the all-seeing eye on a pinback button, pinned to a vintage velvet ribbon in either bark or cherry.

The capelets themselves just killlled me lined up like this...I had to take a photo:

And lastly, here's a look at the gals without their chill-proofing capes, so you can see them in their simple wool collars. Be sure to click to enlarge if you'd like to see them larger!

Both the Sophies and Hannahs are dressed in custom fabrics I designed with iconography from an IOOF poster from 1893 (except the ginger-haired Hannah, who sports a dress of little bees from my own drawings). There are globes, stars, shaking hands...it's neat stuff!

Okay, now on to the Hannahs:

Some girls 1767  Some girls 1756 

These Hannah Dolls measure approx 9" tall from tip of toes to top of head. Each design (Mystical & Bee) is an edition of 4. The dolls are crafted from wool felt, new and vintage cottons, custom fabrics, muslin, and are stuffed plump with poly-fil. Each has an entirely hand-painted face.

High-five, lil' ladies!

I'm all abuzz about tomorrow's update...be there or be square!
