I was sorely tempted to give him a snow shovel and a scarf instead of an axe but that wouldn’t mean much to anyone outside of Boston these days!
Cherub on his chest!
this is the last of the dolls that I wanted to post after Christmas- just in case. It is also the last doll I will be posting for 2014. I am working on a project for next year and that’ll keep me busy for the next few weeks.
He has an antique moose button- another one that I was saving for a lumberjack.
This fine fellow was a special request gift for another very fine fellow! I had a blast making him a little bit extra special. Here he is without his cap-
He has an eagle on his chest and George Washington on his arm. He has an antique reindeer button for his belt buckle- perfect for a lumberjack! I’d been saving it and waiting for the right man.
He has an axe and I also made him a backpack so I could put some surprises in it.
Happy Travels!
I am getting to the last dolls of the year here. Some I am waiting to post until after Christmas since I don’t want to ruin any surprises. This fellow will be going into my etsy shop right after I post this.
This toile is wonderful- I love the sailing port imagery. He has wool felt suspenders with embroidered decoration. And an axe of course.
Someone asked me to do a lumberjack with skeleton fabric after I made this fellow at the end of September last year, Yes, 10 months ago. So I have finally gotten to it!
