Christmas Eve kitty.
This is a handmade textile artwork inspired by folk art.
I have called her Christmas Eve kitty because although she wears a summer dress, she was actually created in the lead to Christmas.
She is made from a mix of new and upcycled materials. I have used calico for her body that I have dyed in a light grey colour.
Her face is mostly drawn except for her pink nose and white whiskers.
She wears a dress upcycled from a summer dress and a summer top. Both fabrics have colourful floral patterns on them.
The collar has a mini vintage button sewn on.
In her arms she holds a ball of red wool.
She is not a toy and was created as a textile artwork for display only.
She measures approximately 15cm (6 inches).
She is signed at the back and I have sewn a fabric loop so she can be nicely displayed on your walls.
Please keep away from direct sunlight and from any source of water.
As a doll maker inspired by folk art dolls, I want to say that the fabric fraying, the threads still showing or the way things are attached to each other are all voluntary processes. This is the way I find that my creations are beautiful. This how I feel they are unique and original. It shows their frailties, flaws and their strength altogether.
I am working with upcycled materials mostly.
