Square Body Lady by Jennifer Gould 2" x 7", handwoven overshot in cotton, cotton knit, UltraSuede buttons, beads
This whimsical doll features a square-ish body from
specialty fabric (such as a textured handwoven), head and appendages from
fabric tubes, and a BIG button for the hat.
The face is usually a square of UltraSuede and the feet and hands either
buttons or beads. She’s silly, comical
and cute, and is all of us women over 50 when we begin to feel like we have to
work extra hard at keeping our figures intact.

Square Body Lady by Jennifer Gould 3" x 11", handwoven, cotton strip weaving, cotton and synthetic knits, UltraSuede, buttons |
This is a very easy doll to make. I created her so that I could feature my collection of handwoven fabrics from friends, especially those of Chicago textile artist, Jean Pluta.
