Primitive Black Mammy w rusty earrings - 132
Sada is 19 1/2" tall and sits 10" high. She's made of muslin. I've stuffed her head, arms, legs, and the upper half of her body with polyester fiberfil. The lower half of her body is stuffed with trimmings from my cutting table to help her sit well. She has a needle sculpted nose and stitched mouth. I've stained her with coffee/vanilla stain and painted and sanded her. She has raw wool hair and button eyes
There are muslin pantaloons under her dress of black, gray, and tan plaid recycled from a man's shirt. Her apron is made from a piece of vintage muslin cut from a feedsack towel I found at my Grandma's farm.
She wears a muslin kerchief over her hair. I've stitched rusted wire "hoop earrings" where her ears would be. The earrings are the metal rings that come with the tags I use for my cats and sheep. I just can't let anything go to waste. All her clothing is stained with my coffee/vanilla stain. She is signed "designed and made with love, Lucy". Sada is $30 FREE SHIPPING IN 48 US. Others email me. I offer $$ off equal to average US shipping costs
