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. :)
