Treasure Keeper of the Fabric Poet's Society (Shelf Doll).  This is a very unique doll that uses a commercially made Boat Shelf as a part of the skirt.  The fabric skirts lay on top of the shelf and leave the openings for display of fun collector items.  The jointed doll sits on top of the shelf.  A page of the pattern is devoted to discussion for an effective face.  Wired fingers, button joints, and costuming are a part of this pattern.  Instructions on the under fittings are also a part of the pattern.
