Una Maw

 

These wonders are in the collection of the London Museum  they were created by Una Maw, Una Maw died in 1941 was a British author, painter, These are some of the characters of "The Vegetable Kingdom," a collection of 34 handmade vegetable-themed rag dolls in the 1920s. 

Una travelled to India in 1916, so, perhaps, acquired some of the materials then, bringing them back with her to London before making the dolls around 1920. Of particular note are the outfits worn by Miss Lettuce and Mademoiselle French Bean, which seem to be constructed from the ornately patterned edge of a sari.
