Viola, A Rag Doll in Liberty Lawn

  Viola is an Ida Doll pattern so she is only twelve inches tall but still nice and tubby.  As always her face is hand painted and hand stitched and she has a rose quartz crystal heart for love. She has lavender in her stuffing for a gentle scent. Viola has a warm and tranquil expression with soft brown eyes and even softer brown hair.

Her dress in a Liberty of London Tana Lawn print called Ros.   It was designed for the Autumn/Winter collection of 2002 and is now a Liberty Classic.  The tiny violas are a subtle two toned print in pink with her knickers and underskirts coordinating.  She is finished with organza ribbon and tiny buttons with little leather shoes.  Her sachet is stitched in sampler style and is stuffed with lavender.  I like the chinzyness of the fabric and the soft colours of the doll, it makes, I feel, for a very sweet combination.  I hope you like her.
