Autumn - 2022

This is Autumn. She is a pumpkin girl created in an online class with Karen Baker. I always enjoy Karen’s classes, you can always be sure of learning new techniques. This doll has a clay pumpkin head. Her hands are the vines coming from the pumpkin. Her feet were going to be the same, but it just changed along the way to be come leather shoes.

She is wearing a pair of pantaloons, striped socks, a cotton skirt. Her blouse is silk and tied at the wrists are strips of the skirt fabric. Her vest is a boucle type of fabric and the look is finished with cowl for her neck. She can free stand, but I’ve chosen to have her sitting.

The whole look is completed with a basket of felt oak leaves, a pumpkin, cotton and felt acorns, and a sprinkle of real acorns donated by a friend. Enjoy
