By popular request, we have added another Snuggly Saint Doll of a member of the Holy Family! St. James was the son of the Righteous Joseph, who was betrothed to the Theotokos. After growing up with Jesus, St. James became one of his followers. After Christ’s death and resurrection, St. James became a bishop and helped to spread the news of Jesus to other communities. He was eventually martyred for this work. St. James, pray to God for us!

These dolls are approximately 9” tall (larger size) and the smaller ones are approximately 5” tall, made with organic cotton fabric and fluffy stuffing. This is a simple sewing project for a beginner, or a quick project for someone comfortable with sewing machine basics.

Options available are:

-A limited number of FINISHED dolls are available, all sewn with care by Orthodox sewists in the United States.

-Fabric only. With this option you will receive the printed fabric to make one large or small doll, along with instructions. Just FYI— you will need 3 oz of stuffing to stuff a large doll and 1 oz to stuff a small doll.

-Doll kit. With this option you will receive the fabric, instructions, plus the right amount of stuffing for one doll, and a needle and thread. Everything you need to make the doll (except scissors!).
