Trim Dotty's Dresses








This box set was the result of a paper doll trade.  It's a set I've wanted for a while, because I've been practicing paper embroidery.  The box is missing the thread it would have come with, which was used to decorate the costumes.  The thick doll has a stand (not shown here).  She has 13 pieces of clothing and 3 hats each accented with embroidery. I love the idea of combing other crafts with paper dolls, like the sewing paper doll sets.  This was published by Whitman in 1949.

  1. Is she by Hilda Miloche? The styling of the body and outfit look like her work, but not the face. Any idea?
