Ulla is a doll that I’ve been carrying in my mind for quite some time, brainstorming what she really is going to be like. . I knew she was going to be a cute child with little dimples on her cheeks. And curls was a must! Yes, messy wind blown curly hair! But when this girl took a first glance at me, I immediately knew that her character was not easy at all, she had little cheeky sparks blinking in her eyes!
This is a free-standing doll, with proportions resembling a six year old child. Her legs and arms can bend, and she can sit beautifully. The neck can turn side to side, as well as up and down. The entire body is needle-felted from wool, with no stuffed parts. I sculpted the face myself from special clay. The whole doll is covered with fabric made specifically for dollmaking. Her eyes are painted with textile paints, and her cheeks are softly blushed with beeswax crayons. She has natural mohair hair, which should be handled gently. I sew all her outfits using my own original patterns, and I also make the shoes from natural leather. She stands approximately 45-46 cm (17.3 inches) tall and is intended for ages 12+ or adult doll collectors.
