A very cute
27" raggedy that can be made up for any holiday.
She's shown here in a Valentine's Day print. I
made several with tea-dyed dresses from a calico with a
white background and big green shamrocks. I
painted the stripes on her legs orange, green and white
and laced the shoes with several strands of black
embroidery floss, wrapped the ends of the floss around
her ankles and turned her into an Irish stepdancer for
St. Patrick's Day. One of the unique features
about this doll is that she has traditional yarn hair
that is adorned with little girls' barrettes, ribbons
and pony tail holders. For this doll, I used some
of the barrettes and ties that I still had hanging
around from when my girls were little. Three sizes of hearts are
included with the pattern to use as bowl fillers or to
make a simple yet elegant primitive candle lamp basket
as shown in the photo.

24" primitive
raggedy angel doll is a cutie in stars and stripes, but
leave her apron plain and she can be dressed in any
cotton calico or homespun. I stamped her apron
with one of those glow-in-the-dark stars that I swiped
from my son's ceiling. |
