Many years ago, I taught at Artfest. It was a golden era, and for many years, I had a wonderful time.
At one Artfest, organizer Teesha Moore gave us simple cloth dolls. I think her grandmother had assembled them.
When I received mine, I promptly embellished her. Here’s the result.
(I apologize for the size of the image. It’s from around 2001, I think. When I find her again in my storage boxes, I’ll add a larger photo.)
My embellishments:
- I added rubber stamped images.
- Then, I sewed beads onto her.
- I gave her wool hair intended for dolls’ wigs, plus antennae with beads.
- Finally, I added wired, rubber-stamped, paper “faerie wings.”
I hope those give you ideas for ways to embellish your cloth dolls and figures.
To me, she looks like a wild faerie woman, ready for adventures!
