Sunbonnet Sue doll pattern?
 
Someone has asked me to make a Sunbonnet Sue doll to sit on a shelf? Looked for online patterns but cannot find one. Have got the door stop pattern but this one needs to sit on a shelf. Any help is appreciated.

I've never seen a SBS doll pattern. You may have to buy a pattern for a cloth doll pattern and make the bonnet, apron, and dress...or use the legs from another soft doll pattern and add to the door stop pattern?

I haven't seen one but I'll look thru some books and see but you could just use anothe doll and dress it up. I'll look for you. have you tried typing in SBS online and see what comes up? sue

How about a Holly Hobbie pattern? Holly and Sue are pretty similar.... I found this after doing a cursory search for "holly hobby doll pattern".

to help it sit on a shelf--when you stuff the body line the base with stuffing[to keep it smooth]then make a calico bag to fit in the 'bottom' use fill the bag plastic pellets /or dry sand to add weight

And don't stuff the legs too full or she won't be able to sit.

Thanks for your help. Yes I think Holly Lobby pattern is the closest thing to SBS.
