Betsy Ross Doll
My interpretation of Betsy Ross gathering her fabrics to make the commissioned flag that would become our nation's banner of independence. Her body made from old linen is stuffed with wool from Pennsylvania and measures 9 1/2 inches tall. Betsy is dressed in the style of the period with a cotton gown and cotton lace cap (which has been snipped from an old doily). Her hair is stitched with cotton thread and her face is hand drawn with ink. The red, white, and blue fabrics which she has selected for the flag are cotton. All visible stitching is done by hand with cotton thread and is very delicately done. I've included a cotton thread loop on the back for hanging if desired but can easily be snipped off if not wanted. Please take a moment and view all the photos. Kindly asking $100 which includes travel.
