- Description
- Handmade fabric doll wearing pink-edged green chaps, a blue body suit, and a pink tunic with a light green braided string wrapped around the chest, as well as a kind of necklace made from red and yellow beads that wraps around the back. Small pieces of red felt decorated with blue and black beads mimic moccasins on the doll’s feet. The doll’s face is stitched on with black thread and it has long black braided [human?] hair tied with short strips of red fabric. There is also a small ponytail tied with red fabric sticking up the top of the head - to either side of this ponytail are beaded strings that frame the face. The leg and arm joints are thinned so that the limbs have basic mobility, but are not fully articulated.
