As I live in Africa, it seemed only right that my fairy should be of the local variety and, as my favourite colours are in the autumnal range, I looked
for inspiration from these.
Sunrise and roosters crowing seemed a good fit - hence the "rooster tail" wings.
The skirt, sleeves and bandanna (or "doek" as we call it here) are all dyed with Dy-na-flow dyes and then antique pleated.
The basque, peplum & wings are all made from Batavian prints.
Patti provided the pattern to be used - apart from the fact that it had to be a fairy, how we chose to dress it was left up to the individual.
Patti Medaris Culea has produced a series of books
on various aspects of doll-making
and I was honoured to be asked to contribute to "Creative Cloth Doll Couture"
"Umqhagi - The Rooster Fairy'"
