Description

The rag doll is, by far, the most popular and most well known of all American folk dolls. The term “rag doll” actually describes almost any stuffed, cotton cloth doll made from scraps of fabrics. Rag dolls have been made for centuries in many parts of the world, and all of them are different. Dolls were usually stuffed with the least appealing scraps and the best scraps were used for the doll’s body and clothes. If there was hair, it was usually made of yarn or string. The faces were left plain, embroidered, or painted. 

 

The type of rag doll pattern included in this kit is referred to as the “pancake style doll” because it is flat on both sides. This is the most common and easiest of cloth dolls to make. This kit includes all you need to enjoy making your very own historical rag doll.

 

Kit includes: 1 piece plain fabric, 1 piece patterned fabric, 1 yarn hair roll, stuffing, instruction booklet
