January 12, 2009 By Rebecca 1 Comment

Meet Ginger! She looks a little sad. But trust me, she’s a feisty little girl! Ginger is my original design & is guaranteed one of a kind art. She’s been made of muslin & stuffed with fiberfill. She measures 12.5″ tall from the tip of her ears to her toes. She’s been painted & sanded a couple of times, giving her a lovely, aged patina. She’s been sealed with a combination of glossy & matte sealers so that she may be lightly dusted from time to time. Ginger’s lower torso is rag-stuffed & bean filled to allowing her to sit nicely without assistance. Her knees have been sewn through.

Ginger’s sweet face has been painted with a variety of media. Her ears have been attached by hand. Her paws have been needle-sculpted by hand. And, yes, this sophisticated lady is wearing pretty painted brown boots with tan socks & red laces!

Ginger’s blouse has been sewn from taupe osnaburg. It features hand-gathered sleeves, hand-stitching around the neckline and back & a vintage mother of pearl button. Ginger’s apron skirt has been sewn from 100% cotton. It features hand-stitching along the hemline.
