Description
Now you can create a real little suitcase in the hoop on your embroidery machine. Its the perfect little accessory for our New In the Hoop Holly Doll or even our other baby dolls. The design is for the 5x7 hoop and up and is made in just 7 hoopings. Every component of the suitcase is made in the hoop and the suitcase is assembled mostly in the hoop as well. There will be a 5 minute assembly at the end with a bit of hot glue to secure some remaining tabs. You can pack an entire overnight change of clothes for the doll: dress, shoes, socks, underwear. The suitcase even has velcro closure, a carry handle, a beautiful floral motif on the front, applique heart on the rear, strapping, with the lid opening and closing easily. It is even lined inside.
