Alice and Jane

I have been very inspired by all the cute dolls I have come across here on the Internet. I made my first doll yesterday without a pattern. I took my Raggedy Ann doll from my childhood and traced a rough outline. Then I took elements from a couple other dolls that I liked and here is what I came up with.

Her name is Alice. And of course I made her for my darling Sidney.



I thought she was so cute that I made another one for my friends daughter. I named her Jane. I can't wait to give Jane to her.





I definitely think this doll is better than the last dolls I had made. I like the felt hair better than the yarn. Especially for smaller children. And I like the painted face better. I wish I had tried this first.
