    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.

    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. :)
