'THE  EMPORIUM'
TRADITIONAL  HAND MADE  CLOTH  DOLLS

Welcome to my house of happy dolly people

 


I  have been making cloth dolls for years and years,
they have evolved to how you see them now.
I aim to make them 'english' in style and by that I mean understated in style and colours.

The stuffing is polyester hollowfibre, and the fabrics used are new and carefully chosen. The dolls oftern have a William Morris print or a Laura Ashley fabric incorporated into their clothing or bodies.

I paint the individual faces in acrylics. I give each doll a name which is written on the label on its back. I started at 'A' and I am working through the alphabet. When I get
to 'Z', I will start at the beginning again. I record permanently the name and an outline of the dolls clothing in a book, so each is individually recogniseable to me.
They are my own design and if treated carefully will last more than one lifetime
