I found an adorable vintage 3 piece doll outfit at a doll show yesterday ...so Rudy quickly became Ruby!

Ruby was made from a vintage mohair lap rug...the softest one Ive found yet! She stands 13" tall with Ultrasuede paw pads and a perle cotton thread nose. Her black German glass eyes have needle felted wool eyelids and perle cotton thread eyebrows. She is jointed with hardboard discs using a cotter pin and lock-nuts. Ruby is stuffed with premium polyester fiberfill.

I love finding these mohair lap rugs... from the days before cars had heaters! The top side of this one was a wild pattern in browns, golds, and reds... see "Toby". The gorgeous ruby red mohair was the back side!
