REGENCY LADY WITH PARASOL

Instructor:  Joy Parker                                           Price: $75

Dress a beautiful swivel-head porcelain doll in very fine cotton trimmed with lace. The doll will already be made, but without the arms attached. You can choose from 'straight' or 'bent' arms, or one of each if you wish. She wears leather boots or silk slippers - again, your choice. Her underclothes are trimmed with 100% cotton eyelet and she is finished with silk ribbons. You can add a Regency bonnet- pattern, fabric and instructions are supplied.  The wig is made from a kit. The sewing is all straight seams and is not difficult. This workshop is designed so that the doll will be dressed by the end of the day.   Tools Needed
