Item details

This is Tomasina she is a hand embroidered blue tit rag doll. I use no paint to delineate the pattern but work freehand embroidery onto self colour cloth to make the plumage both on the front and the back of the doll. Tomasina is dressed in a pretty Makower cotton in a deep yellow with cotton and lace underskirts. She has stripy legs and little leather shoes. Her dress is finished with buttons and ribbon and she carries a little lavender sachet that is also embroidered. She has a little brass ring to her back so she can hang.

She stands just nine inches tall.

She is, as are all my girls, warm and companiable with a touch of English whimsy. I hope she makes you smile. Please remember she is not a toy and not suitable for children.

Please enjoy browsing and should you buy a doll she will be packaged in an organza bag. I have been given literally hundreds and will use them until they run out rather than let them go to landfill. Also I have been asked why I don't often repeat combinations of fabric with the dolls. It is because I tend to buy remnant stock where I can, tiny pieces of fabric that are too small for most people to use. So often I have only enough to make one doll. Thank you and my warmest wishes xx

I am very fond of our native birds, birds generally really and I wanted a way to use birds in my work. I have also recently wanted to use more embroidery in my work and this seemed a lovely way of combining the two. I love the delicacy of these little ladies and the way they sit in your hand. I genuinely enjoy making them and I hope you like them.
