Harriet - A Folk Art Rag Doll in Liberty Lawn

This is Harriet, she one of my Ida Doll Patterns so she is quite small standing 13inches from tiny shoes to hand styled hair.  As always she has a hand painted face with embroidered features. Harriet has a rose quartz heart and lavender in her stuffing for a gentle fragrance. She carries an embroidered sampler style lavender sachet and is finished with organza ribbon with little buttons.

Her dress fabric is beautiful, it is a varient of Su Blackwells Wild Flowers for Liberty.  Su is a well known paper artist but has designed textiles for Liberty.  This range is based on victorian wild flower books and is stunning.

Harriet's colouring and tone of fabric gives her a calm feeling and the gentle scent adds to her sence of calm.  To create more fragrance you just squeeze her tummy and sniff.
