Doll is for grand niece Meagan who will be christened on Sunday.
Made many of these dolls years ago for my granddaughters and nieces but didn't remember that they are labor intensive. Made a few mistakes this time, didn't cut the skirt on the fold and wondered why the dress was so tight, fixed that and made the same dumb mistake when cutting the apron. In spite of my mistakes she came out pretty cute. May in Jersey

Very pretty. I haven't made one of these for a long time. Was just thinking of making a teddy bear for a friend's neice but I think that I'll do one of these instead. Thanks for your pic.

I wonder where mine is??? I have the Real one plus two handmade ones!! Plus I bought the pattern but never made one ....yet!

I got Americana Raggy Ann and Andy sitting on my fire place mantel...

I made Ann and Andy for my daughter years ago. I remember being amazed by how much fabric the apron/pinafore took to make. Gather! Gather! And more gather!

Oh, I love her. How did you do her hair. I like your way better than the red yarn.
The Americanas are cute too. Love their sweaters.

SO cute!

Love her

May, she is just darling! :D

I remember I bought these dolls at a craft fair when my daughter had her first Christmas and put them under the tree. They scared her to death and she would just scream when she saw them. I had to remove them. Laugh when we think of that now.

She is so cute!

The orginal Raggedy Ann and Andy pattern called for loops of red yarn to be sewn directly onto the doll's heads, I just hated doing it that way. Years ago I bought a Country Ann and Andy pattern and it said to rip 1" or 1 1/2" strips of fabric for the hair. The strips are sewn into 3" loops and then hand sewn onto the doll's head. Easier said than done. The apron in the country pattern was stitched onto the doll's dress so I used the pattern from the orginal dolll that has shoulder strips and ties in the back.

Very cute doll. I made muslin dolls for my grandchildren, they are fun. :thumbup: :thumbup:

She is very cute I especially like her hair.

:thumbup: :D :thumbup: sooooo cute!!

Raggedy Ann and Andy were the only "dolls" I ever wanted as a child. Great Job!

We love Raggedy Ann and Andy here! She is so pretty!

Love to make them, with extra material from the quilts they are given to little girls.

Nice... Do you hand embroider the face or do it with paint ?

Adorable!!! So, how much stash did you bust on this little beauty???

Adorable....just LOVE those dolls. Thanks for sharing.

Oh my gosh. That brought back lots of memories... I made them for all of my nieces and nephews 30 or more years ago. Every once in a while one shows up... thanks for the memories...
