Doll-A-Day 2023 354: Cloth Doll

  Number 354 is this cute little girl.


She's only about 7 inches tall. She has a pressed cloth face, and stockingette arms and legs.


Her face looks to be hand painted. Her dress has faux straps across the chest, and real lacing.


Her sleeves and apron are a very fine cotton. She has tiny socks, with stitching detail along the tops, and felt accents.


And little felt shoes.

Her legs appear to be stitched up the fronts.

  She has a beautiful face. I'm not sure what her hair is made of. It's shiny, and made into two little braids. Her felt hat frames it all nicely.


I assume those felt pieces are meant to be feathers.


  I would guess her to be from the 40's. From the looks of her, she's possibly meant to be Alpine/Swiss or German. Anybody know what her costume is?


  That's 354. Check out today's other posts as we try to catch up for the end of the year!

  1. What a cute doll. Her outfit makes me think of Shirley Temple in Heidi.
