Soldier Doll

I have been wanting to make a primitive soldier. I found a pattern by "Bittersweet Susan".
The pattern has him as a setting soldier, but I decided to make him standing.
He is approx. 21" tall, his uniform is made from grey wool. He has buttons and rusty pins
down the front of his uniform and on his hat. The buttons have the appearance of buttons
from olden days. He has a beard made from raw sheep wool. He is heavily stained and has
a real belt around his waist. He is standing on an old piece of weatherboarding from our old farmhouse.
He is also holding a prim Americana flag.
I am asking $36.99 plus traveling fee if interested. Lecia123@verizon.net

  1. How cute and historical. The grey wool is so historically correct for a CSA soldier during the Civil War. Very good job you did on the creation :)
