Annabelle


Annabelle has articulated arms, and her basket of flowers can be removed or placed in a different position. She stands 11" high and her torso is an antique wooden sewing spool decorated with ribbons and tiny pearls.

Her dress is a repurposed doll's dress from about 1940. Around the bottom of her skirt is a hand-tatted piece of lace. As I was sewing her dress, I thought alot about the person who did that tatting and how much time it must have taken.
