Dolls, those miniature human figures so beloved by the young and the young at heart are a worldwide phenomenon - they’re a means of imitation helping to satisfy a child’s need or instinct to copy and learn through play, but they’re also a BFF. Dolls are time travelers with a series of complex stories to tell about resilience, racism, culture, tradition, family relationships, childhood, memories, escapism, and love and embroidery adds emotion, and individuality to every doll.
