My First Prairie Doll Creation

Yesterday I mentioned that I finally got myself a pattern and low and behold even though I had gotten a pattern I actually didnt use one to make my set of 3 prairie dolls, which by the way, are for sale. The set of 3 is $25 and that includes shipping within the USA going priority mail with delivery confirmation. If your interested, leave me a comment.

Dolls on Left & Right measure 6" from head to bottom of body and doll in middle measures 8" from top of head to bottom.


Did you know:

Dolls made in North America, from the earliest primitive examples found at the sites of prehistoric villages, to those made in contemporary times, all share a handcrafted folkart tradition. Many of these dolls were made out of necessity from whatever scraps were on hand, and were substitutes for costly store-bought toys. Parents and children in Colonial America fashioned dolls from easily obtained items such as clothespins, corn husks, dried apples and rags.
