10" Esther, a William Higgs pincushion doll...........SOLD

I just could not resist finishing this little William Higgs wooden doll off into a pincushion doll.
Esther is 10" tall and all hand carved.  I had actually carved and painted her before the big fire here but this week I thought it was time to finish her off.
She is delightful even with her scraggly hair do!  Esther is dressed in early faded linen that is cream and coral but I think it might have originally have been red, you decide.  She has her little pocket at her hip and a tiny pair of scissors that actually work.  She is well weighted and stands perfectly.......ready to hold your pins and needles or just put her on a shelf.
Esther is now SOLD.
If you would like more photos or have questions just email me:  toysintheattic@sympatico.ca
Enjoy!

  1. Kathy, she's absolutely wonderful which is probably why she sold so fast. I think I'd have a problem using her as a pin cushion. :0)
