I have made a few of these is the past, and thought I would make a set to put in our quilt show.

Very good job on Ann and Andy. Used to make them years ago, when my kids were little.
They are the perfect compliment to quilts. :thumbup:

I have patterns to make differents sizes of these two! Never have gotten around to making them, and now I don't have any little girls who would want them as I have no children of my own, and my nieces are out of the doll phase. :cry:

Now all your cuties need is a quilt!! ;-)

my grandmother made me and my sisters a set over 50 years ago and I still have them. What a great ideal to make a quilt to go with them.

You did an awesome job on your Raggedy Ann and Andy. They are two of the best I have seen.

Katsie 06-09-2010 06:56 AM

These are so cute! You did a nice job.

How much do you charge for a set of your beautiful Raggedy Ann & Andy dolls? You do amazing work. My DGD just got the set that I used to have as a little girl. She so loves them!

I love the Raggedy's...

craftybear 06-09-2010 09:15 AM

Awesome, you should make and sell them, so cute!

They look so happy

I love the raggedys also, when my dd was a baby that was the theme in her room. You did a great job and I think they would be a hit at the show.

Very cute!

I love Ann and Andy!!! Did you embroider their faces?

mimee4 06-09-2010 06:00 PM

They look so happy. Adorable faces and their smiles will light up any child's heart.

CarrieAnne 06-09-2010 06:03 PM

Sewsweet 06-09-2010 07:22 PM

I don't make them to sell. I make them , and when the time is right I will find them a child who needs them. That is when I get paid, with that child's smile.

There was a male quilter on here the other night talking about doing RA dolls for a friend. His name was Micheal

b.zang 06-09-2010 07:29 PM

They are so cute. My SIL impressed me to bits when she put together a Raggedy Ann doll in a day and it was so-o-o cute. Having a pair really finishes them off.

wvdek 06-09-2010 07:40 PM

You did a really swell job on them. Very nice.

I never had RA dolls as a kid. Maybe someday. :wink:

littlehud 06-09-2010 08:47 PM

Your Raggedy Ann and Andy are so cute. Great job.

Thank you ... appreciate the info :)

I love the dolls...How long does it take to make one? :-)

I love your Ann and Andy dolls. They are my favorite dolls. I used to make them.....couldn't tell you how many sets I've done. Haven't made one for years, and seeing yours makes me kind of want to do another! I have a Simplicity pattern from about 50 years ago that I use. I treasure that pattern almost as much as I treasure the dolls! Your dolls are worth a lot of smiles. :)

It's kind of like when you make a quilt, it depends on the time you have to spend. This set took about a week and a half. I just started cuting out today make Daisy & Ddonald duck (had this patten for over 20 years) thay well take about two to three weeks, I hope.

dsb38327 06-10-2010 11:16 AM

They are cute. Someone has them as their avatar I think.

Donald Duck is my absolute favorite Disney character!!! I can't wait to see him ...
