This sweetie is Maxie! And Maxie is definitely ready to welcome spring in this pretty peach ensemble! She is my original design, has been made of muslin & is stuffed with fiberfill. Maxie measures just over 15″ tall from the tip of those sweet ears to the bottom of her feet. Maxie has been hand-painted & sanded a couple of times, giving her a lovely, aged patina. She has been sealed with matte transparent varnish with UV filter to ensure her durability over the years. Maxie has been made for hanging with a hemp loop attached to her back or she can sit with assistance as her knees have been sewn through.
Maxie has been painted with a variety of media. Her ears are machine quilted. She has needle-sculpted hands & sports brown painted gloves. She also sports painted brown boots with tan laces & taupe socks.
Maxie’s apron dress is a beautiful collection of some of my very favorite fabrics in sweet peachy hues. Her blouse is made of nubby taupe osnaburg. It features hand-gathered sleeves & hand-stitching around the neckline. It is finished off with a vintage button. Maxie’s skirt features hand-stitching around the hemline.
Maxie is available on eBay. She will end Feb. 1 at 9:15 PM EST. Click here to make this dumpling yours!
