Patriotic Americana Art Doll by Skunk Hollow



This Patriotic Art Doll is named Madison she is 10 inches tall and was handmade the primitive way (no sewing machine used) and is OOAK.

Her body and arms were made from navy fabric. Her legs and feet are a blue cotton fabric with darker blue stars. She has a pair of blue thread shoes on.

Madison's dress is a blue Americana material with the American flag and gold stars on it. Her pantaloons are various shades of blue with stars and stripes on them accented with a red embroidery tie.
Her hair is a shimmery reddish fiber custom cut for the exact style to fit her personality.

Madison holds a mixed media art star of paper and muslin with the words USA stitched on it.

If you are interested in purchasing Madison she is $45.00 available on my Etsy shop.

Americana Abby Primitive Art Doll

This little OOAK, Primitive, Art Doll is 9 inches tall. Abby is something new I am trying out ... an art doll made using primitive techniques. She will kneel or sit for you. Her body was made from the constitution of the United States material and her arms are wired to position nicely for you.
Abby's face and hands were made with coffee stained muslin and her face was hand drawn using water colors. Her nose and lips are also needle sculpted. Abby's face has been sealed to resist dust and retain its colors.

She's pulled up her skirt for you so that you can see that her legs are Americana red and tan fabric, her skirt is an Americana reddish brown with mustard color stars on it and her loons are little American Flags over tan fabric. She also wears a tennis visor made from the same fabric.
Abby is very patriotic and hand made (without the use of a sewing machine) in the USA. If you would like to purchase her follow this link to Etsy
