Kewpie Dolls…..remembering the little bisque dolls with blue wings

Kewpie dolls are one of my favourite embroidery patterns. When I was a small child Kewpie dolls with their little blue wings were my companions during nap time. These days of the week Kewpie doll embroidery patterns come from McCall’s Needlework and Crafts September 1988 Collector’s Edition. They were first published during the 1930’s. They are so sweet and cuddly. They would make a great conversation piece embroidered onto a cafe curtain in your kitchen.

This pattern is for Wednesday, a sewing day of course. The full seven days of the week are in a 824kb pdf document ready for download
