Peggies…

My dear friend Michelle and creator of the beautiful Betty embroideries has been busy beavering away with Janet Gibson on a new little project. Peggies… peg dolls made from lots of found treasures around their studios and Staunton Harrold woods. From scraps of fabric and lace, old buttons and beads and haberdashery odd items such as old cotton reels to foraged finds around the woods such as acorn cups, feathers, sycamore wings, twigs and branches. There was even one little Peggy with an old watering can flower head as a hat, she looked just like Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady!! Every little find was put to good use for their debut at a vintage pop up market hosted by Curly Magpie’s a couple of weeks ago.

Here’s just a few of their enchanting and quirky little Peggies!
