Fun Making Paper Dolls To Collect

Recently, making paper dolls from holiday cards that have been received over time has been a delightful challenge. Some have been make with clothing in fabric.

The four that are here are called Valentines Girls about 4 1/2 inch tall. Each has body, arms and legs with bits of fabric covering them. Colored with pencil crayons. The joints are knotted embroidery thread or quilting thread. They aren't fancy but they are cute to collect, but too delicate to play with.
