This is a something I made inspired by the main characters in a favourite children's book in the fifties. The boy doll stands about 5 inches tall if you measure his hat as well. He stands alone but can also be squeezed into his lovely car. The car is huge at 7 inches long. His little dog is about three inches tall.

All have been entirely needle-felted with no frame inside. They are firm enough to hold their shape but is still a little squidgy and nice to hold.

Needle felting is a form of soft sculpture which is probably one of the slowest craft. A barbed needle is used to poke soft fleece and repeated stabbing makes the fibers tangle up enough to firm up and assume a shape. There is no sewing or glueing. Individual parts like clothes and parts of the car are made by needle felting. It is laborious and time consuming but the result is satisfying.

This doll is one hotsell in a collection of storybook characters I have made. Others are in separate listings. If you are interested in other characters you may send me a message.

This is an ornament for collection and not meant to be a toy. It should be kept away from very young children and pets.

The list price is for both the doll and the car and the dog and includes shipping.
