Halloween Annie and Bat Doll

Description

Introducing, my Halloween 2009, Annie Doll. This little lady is all decked out in her Halloween party dress. She is 26” tall if you include her hat and 22” tall if you don’t. Her body is made from aged osnaburg fabric with seamed elbows and knees and needle sculpted fingers. I’ve painted and sanded her orange striped stockings and black shoes. She has black button eyes with hand stitched detail, and hand painted features on her face.

Annie’s whimsical Halloween print cotton dress and pantaloons are trimmed with ruffled orange tulle, polka dot ribbon, and black vintage style tinsel. I’ve sewn black pom poms down the front of her bodice, and added a layer of tulle under her dress to give it some fullness. I’ve attached a Jack-O-Lantern picture tag to her dress.

Annie’s hair is made from prim red sheep’s wool that has been needle felted in place, and decorated with polka dot ribbon bows. I’ve sewn a party hat to her head made from lots of ruffles, black tinsel, and a fabric covered card stock cone topped with a black pom pom.

Annie is holding her pet bat I’ve named “Fang”. He is made from painted, sanded muslin. I’ve wired his wings so he can be posed, and given him an orange tinsel collar. Fang is attached to a twisted rusty wire for Annie to hold.
