Handmade Rag Doll: Emily, Plain Legs

Meet Emily! Emily is made from calico (the traditional fabric for making rag dolls), with non-removable, brown, felt shoes incorporated into her legs. Her face has been hand embroidered and her hair has been created from thick, orange wool and styled into two pigtails. She is 52cm (approx. 20 and-a-half inches) tall.

We take great care when making the rag dolls to ensure that they will give years of play and companionship and are careful to include no small items. Emily will have ribbons in her hair which are hand-stitched on to provide extra security. Our dolls are UKCA marked and are made from OKEO-TEX Standard 100 tested calico.

Emily arrives in her cotton, laced-trimmed pants (for modesty!) and you could either make clothes for her yourself using our sewing pattern or buy some from The Jemima Company's extensive wardrobe of clothes.

If you would like any part of this doll customised, please get in touch with us and we will be delighted to try to help out.

Should Emily become dirty, she can be sponge cleaned, or if she gets very messy, she can be put into a tied pillowcase and machine-washed on a low temperature. The calico has been pre-washed so shouldn’t cause any problems when washing. Emily’s pants can also be machine-washed. Dry Emily flat.
