Annie
Pumpkin and Matilda are off to the harvest fair. It's late
October and the wind is chilly. She wears her old coat with a
wool pocket stitched on and little black beads for buttons. Her
apron is cotton tweed. Her scarf is grungy gauze. Her arms
are sticks. She is made in the olde style with a pumpkin shaped
head and she is completely rag stuffed. Her hair is sheep's wool
and she wears a tiny with hat on the side of her head. Her nose
has been pinch stitched. A scrap of fabric has been stitched on
to it. One eye is button and the other is floss. Her mouth
is a scrap piece of wool stitched on. Matilda is fat and plumpy
with a wire tail and rusty nail legs and beads for eyes. She is
on a leash tied to Annie's arm. Annie Pumpkin measures
approximately 15" tall when completed as shown.
God
bless you.
