long time ago, my aunt made these dolls, ragedy ann style, they were tipsy topsy dolls? one was a white Ann side, the other was a colored Ann side.. the colored Ann wore a hankerchief on her head, well i no longer have here and want to make them like Aunt Betty did, she is no longer her and now I am in search of.. Has anyone seen a ragedy Anne one like this?

is that the kind of doll that the skirt flips over and it's a different doll?

well there are dolls similar to that. keepsakequilting.com has one i think. or maybe connectingthreads.com
you could alter them. i think i bought one and may still have the pattern somewhere.
found these online

Yes! but she made hers like Ragedy Ann.. and it was neat cause she gave them to her grandchildren that were what she referred to them as her Half&Half babies! and they loved them.. which I think was so cool.........

I might have an old pattern like that. I'll check when I can get a break from my DD, who is currently painting my toenails and "decorating the walls like normal" from yesterday. (she's helping clean up from yesterday even though nothing's out of place)

I have seen them. Only the one I saw was diffent. One was awake and she had a dress on and you flipped her over and she was asleep and had a nightgown on.

I have also seen them done as Cinderella-the-housemaid and Cinderella-at-the-ball.

There are lots of variations you could make. :)
