Lilli&Tom miniature collector's set

Each Lilli&Tom miniature cloth doll comes with a hand cut and stenciled box, a hand bound book, a shashiko stitched bag, story display card (not shown) and wire stand (not shown).

Each Lilli&Tom doll is very special and so I chose to express this special caring by designing and hand making a collector's storage set. The Box is a place to keep all the pieces of the set together. The Bag has the Lilli&Tom house logo and the dolls name embroidered on it - the doll can be kept warm and snug in its own bag when traveling or when put away for safe keeping. The Book records the story of the doll, the meaning of Lilli&Tom as an art project and also is signed, dated and numbered by me, Florence Forrest:) as a document of providence.

Unfortunately the doll in this picture has been put together with the wrong set. This doll's name is Lisa; she a fashion designer who studies Chinese caligraphy. Ingrid, whose bag is shown in the photo, is a former performance artist now book publisher.
