A Primitive Witch in Red & her Halloween Gang

I’m so pleased to introduce you to little Sophie. She is my original design & is guaranteed one of kind art! Sophie has been made of muslin & stuffed with fiberfill. She’s been painted & sanded, top to bottom many, many times & is sealed with a combination of sealers so that she may be beautifully preserved. Sophie has a hemp loop attached to her back for hanging or she can sit with assistance as her knees & hips are sewn through. Sophie is 22 inches tall with her hat, 18″ without it.

Sophie’s face has been painted with a variety of mediums. Her nose & bottom lip have been needle-sculpted by hand. I’ve also needle sculpted by hand Sophie’s fingers. Her arms are lightly wired allowing her to be gently posed.

Sophie sports dainty yellow gloves & pretty boots complete with red laces & buttery yellow socks. Sophie’s laces are highlighted & shaded, making them so very interesting.

Sophie wears a hat & cape made from dark red velveteen. Sophie’s cape is lined with taupe osnaburg & ties at the neck with chocolate ribbon. Her hat is finished with antique mother of pearl buttons. Sophie’s skirt is made from cream colored corduroy & features contrasting red hand-stitching at the hem. Her blouse is made from muslin, features tons of hand stitching & a taupe pearl bead at the neckline. Sophie’s cape & hat can be removed.

I guess when you’re as cute as this girl is, it’s normal to have a slew of little buddies. And boy are these little guys teensy tiny.
Jack O’ Lantern measures 4″ tall, Ghostie is just shy of 3″ & that sweet little Kitty is just shy of 4″. They’ve been made of muslin, stuffed with fiberfill & hand-painted & sanded top to bottom many times.

What a great home this little Halloween Trio gets to hang out in! Sophie’s bag has been made of taupe osnaburg. It is completely lined & features (my first attempt at) embroidery, in shades of red & burnt orange, along the top. Three vintage & antique buttons adorn the front of the bag.

Sophie’s hair is brown 100% mohair. It was lightly glued & carefully needle-felted to her head. It is styled into a big messy bun in the back & is such a sweet hairstyle on this little witch.

    Becky,
    I just looked at zazzel and saw my doll on a card. I love it! Now I can send all my friends the cards inviting them to my private showing. !!
    You can use the initials ELF, Beaver Falls on the ownership id. That will put our little town (BF)on the map.
    Keep on creating and thanks so much for the note. We will have to share war stories sometime. I am telling all my teacher friends we are up for sainthood.
