Rilye, 16" Natural Fibre Art Doll OOAK
SOLD!
Riley is a very spirited little girl. First I was going to dress her into a summery dunagree, but than as the weather has been getting cooler here, she told me that she needs some warmer clothes. I found this little jacket, that was perfect for her it goes so well with her beautiful blue eyes. I have knitted it a while ago, following the pattern of a very talented doll maker, Daria, who has a shop in Etsy, called Petit gosset. You can find the pattern there amongst many other beautiful patterns.
And than she really wanted a pretty floral tunic to go with the jacket. And of cource it all had to match with her beautiful sandals, that I got from a lovely lady in Greece, called Farida/ Darling Waldorf Dolls who has a shop where she sells these lovely little shoes, amongs many other beautiful doll clothes, teddy bears and Waldorf dolls.
Rilye also wanted a little bonnet. She told me that it would not be fair if she did not get one, as all her friends had one, and she really needs it, just in case she will become a traveller.
So this is how it all happened that she ended with more clothes than she was originally going to have.
For her tunic, I decided to use this pretty Liberty Fabric, that I have already used once for my Sabina doll.
She now all ready to find her new mum, and dicover the world.(:
Rilye has been created using natural materials. She is filled with pure wool, and her skin is 100% Laib Yala Swiss jersey. For her pretty locks I have used Pickwick wool, which I have coloured and made into a weft, that I have crocheted into a wig.
Her facial features and her legs have been shaped using needle felting technic.
Her eyes have been carefully embroidered.
Her jacket has been hand knitted, using alpaca yarn. For her dungarees, bonnet and bloomers, I used linen fabric.
She is more suitable for older children or as a collectable item.
