The Grandma Doll by Marilyn Bloodworth |
To support Marilyn (The Dollmaker) Bloodworth's, most recent dollmaking initiative, I preordered one of her 12-inch plush Grandma dolls, which arrived recently. (Including the hair, my doll measures 14 inches.)
This unique doll has fluffy gray hair, embroidered eyes, brown felt eyeglasses with an attached pearl eyeglass chain, and wears a multicolored full-length sleeveless dress, a removable yellow velour jacket, and stitched-on black shoes. To add authenticity, Grandma has stitched forehead wrinkles.

She's fantastic! I love her dress, but the best part is the eyeglass chain! My grandma on Mom's side used one. The other one didn't wear glasses. :)
ReplyDeleteI agree; she is a sweet doll. Grandma and Grandpa dolls aren't seen often enough that have this much personality. "Old, decrepit people" is usually the only impression derived from most dolls that depict the elderly.
