These are simple plain fabric dolls that the doctors and nurses use to explain a medical procedure to a child, and then the child gets to decorate and dress and keep the doll with them during their stay in hospital.

Do you happen to have a pattern for these dolls? I have some patterns for a couple but maybe the one they use would be simpler. That's a great idea too & I could maybe see if our hospitals do this.
