Handmade Ragdoll

It measures 66 cm

The body is made from ballet pink cotton drill and her shoes are made from dark blue cotton which are not removable. She is stuffed with non-allergenic washable polyester filling (Fire Safety Standard BS5852, Cleanliness BS1425, European Standard EN71). The mouth is stitched using red embroidery silk, the eyes are made from felt with a sticky back which I have then sewn around. Her hair is red double knitting wool which is attached in centre to a webbing which is then sewn to the centre back of her head and then glued to her head.

She has pantaloon knickers, the petticoat is made from cream cotton with a velcro fastening, the blouse is made from soft white netting with white dots on and a thin elastic in seam around the neck, her skirt is white with printed purple/red pattern decorated with a line of black ric rac with elastic in the waistband, the waistcoat is purple velvet with a matching satin bias binding around the armholes and edges, the eyelets are metal in a brass colour and then laced with a narrow black ribbon, which I have used again to tie her hair.
