Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max Bailey

Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max BaileyDeirdre is a lovely Birman cat.

Deirdre doesn’t walk. She wafts. Sometimes she floats. Her silky hair wafts and floats along with her.

Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max BaileyThe first thing you notice about Deirdre are her deep sapphire-blue eyes, looking directly out at you from her dark little face. They are full of mystery and wonder.

“What a pretty kitty!” you can’t help saying.

“I know, but thank you,” she replies, and wonders why you state the obvious. It is more fact than flattery.

Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max BaileyIn spite of her awareness of her very good looks, Deirdre is a sweet and loving soul. She never utters a cross word, and is always patient and gentle.

Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max BaileyDeirdre wears a lilac-blue pinafore that has a pretty pattern of grape, dark turquoise, and pink. The bib and over-the-shoulder straps are ruffled in the same fabric. Under the pinafore is a medium-blue blouse with flower buttons down the front. The collar and cuffs are pale lavender blue and edged in red-purple scalloped trim.

Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max BaileyDeirdre’s dark tail emerges from her white bloomers. Her tights are striped in pale lavender blue and red-purple. Tan high-button shoes cover her kitty feet.

Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max BaileyDeirdre is a one-of-a-kind work of art, created from my own design and pattern. She is made from 100% cotton fabric which has been sewn, stuffed, and completely hand-painted with acrylic paints. Her whiskers are made from stiffened cotton thread.

Deirdre, Original One-of-a-kind Birman Cat Art Doll by Max BaileyDeirdre’s paws are needle-sculpted, and her arms are button-jointed so that she can pose. Her face was sculpted from paperclay smoothed into her fabric head.

She can also sit on a chair or stand with a doll stand. (Chair and doll stand not included.) Deirdre is meant for display only.
