"Babes from the Woods" by Kathy Patterson: Mildred is finished ......................and SOLD

Yes there is something new here to see!!

You will now find Early English Wooden Queen Anne style dolls here, as always.......................but now I have also added a new project as well. Although they are not wooden, I have been reproducing some Izannah Walker dolls and loving it. This is something that I have had in the works for a while now and just had to challenge myself to do it. I feel it best to show both styles of dolls that I am making on one site and I hope you enjoy seeing both and come by often to see what is new. If you wish to contact me just email toysintheattic@sympatico.ca

Mildred is finished ......................and SOLD

SOLD

I am pleased to introduce you to Mildred. She is fashioned and hand carved from the inspiration of the early 1680's Queen Anne dolls that were carved by William Higgs.

She is just over 20" tall and fully jointed.

Her clothes are all hand sewn and made by me from Antique Silks and Cottons. She has layers of clothing and underclothing. Her fabulous cap is made from a very early baby bonnet that I cut down and made for Mildred. She is also wearing her silk slippers too.

From her waist hangs an embroidered pinball that I made just for her.
