Yes, you should make and sell dolls along with a baby quilt

Have fun!

I think they would be cuter with little button eyes, or more expressive eyes, but since they are for little ones, I guess the embroidery eyes are better and safer. The pattern also has different hat ideas.

My husband said that lots of people at his work think I should make them to sell, and I would love that, but have no idea if such a thing would sell anymore. Or what to charge. It is so hard to compete with Walmart anymore. I used to make and sell dolls and did pretty good, but that was years ago. I have two file cabinets full of patterns I could make so I could do a big variety. Oh well, something to think about.
