BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Doll Making New Doll Design

Hello All,

This week's article is the first in a series about Raggedy Ann type dolls. Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing patterns, instructions and some design ideas to make the doll your own.

As always, if you have any questions, comments or photos of your dolls, please share them here in the forum.

I look forward to hearing from you.

My father gave my daughter a Raggedy Ann doll when she was just three years old. Dad passed away years ago and my daughter still treasures her Raggedy Ann.

I would love to have a pattern to make one for my great, great neice, and the Raggedy Andy for her little brother.

PS: I just got the pattern for your 15 inch Annie Doll from your article.

Thanks, Helen! Great articles!!!

Thank-you Phyllis,
I'm happy you found what you needed.

So, How are your Annie Dolls coming? Any problems or questions? Please bring your questions here, if you've had any difficulty others may also and many heads are always better than one.

I'd love to see pictures of your dolls. Share them with us all.:)

Hi Kathy,

I'm happy to share and happy we could help with Christmas. I can't wait to hear how your doll turns out, I'm sure it will be something your granddaughter will treasure always. And what a lovely memory you'll be making!
