Little Red Riding Hood - Collectable Fairytale Doll Set

'Don't Stray From the Path' -A set of mini fairy tale characters in a felt drawstring bag. This familiar story of the little girl who strays from the path while wondering alone in the wild woods began life as a European folk tale and was first published in 1697. In has since been subject to many adaptations and interpretations. I like the darker versions of the tale, which I think are more true to the original telling of the story. This heirloom set includes the story's four main characters: Little Red Riding Hood, the Wolf, Grandmother, and the heroic Woodcutter. Each character has been printed on calico cotton from my original ink drawings. I have then meticulously hand embroidered each figure to enhance and further define their appearance. I have given a red fabric cloak to Little Red Riding Hood, and a shawl to Grandmother which is made from a segment of a crocheted doily. The tallest figure measures 10cm (Little Red Riding Hood, including her hood!) down to 8cm at the smalles (diminuitive Grandmother!). Each is filled with just the right amount of polyester toy filling to retain their individual shape and charm. The set comes with a little bag made from charcoal felt with a print of my original wolf drawing on the front. It closes using drawstrings made from white lace and measures approx 18.5cm x 13.5cm. I am sorry that the set is unsuitable as children's toy.
