Doll Workshop

Santa Fe Trail Center to hold Sawdust Doll Making Workshop

The Santa Fe Trail Center will host a Doll Making Workshop on July 13, 2013 from 9am to 4pm.  Participants will make a sawdust doll in a Pioneer Girl motif.   The cost of the workshop is $15 and includes lunch at the Trail Center.  While most materials are provided there is a short list of items participants should bring.  This list is available from the Trail Center and will be provided at the time of registration. 

Participants must be 10 years of age and up or accompanied by an adult.  Some sewing experience is recommended but not required.  The workshop is restricted to 12 people so early registration is a good idea. 

The workshop will be led by Rhonda Cooley, a Larned native.  Rhonda graduated from Larned High School and attended Kansas State University.  After retiring, Rhonda volunteered at the Toy & Miniature Museum in Kansas City, MO where she made costumes for the doll displays.  She also repaired and dressed dolls for the Doll Cradle in Shawnee Mission, KS. 

Rhonda first gave this workshop at Shawnee Indian Mission, a Kansas State Historical Site, 20 years ago.  Since then, she has led this workshop for various other organizations, including a quilt shop.  Rhonda guarantees “. . . each participant will leave with a finished doll, fully dressed, and have a really fun day.”

Please call (620)285-2054 or stop by the Santa Fe Trail Center to register by July 12^th, 2013.  The museum is open Tuesday thru Saturday, 9am to 5pm and is located two miles west of Larned on K-156 Hwy.
