Update. My big sister told me off because the doll had no shoes. I hope she is now satisfied!

I made this little jointed rag doll (ITH) with "built in" underwear two or three years ago and I found her when I was having a bit of a clear out. I thought it was time she had a dress. The bodice was made and lined in the hoop and a gathered skirt added the old fashioned way.

Love her. Her hair reminds me of my son's hair when he was young--I just couldn't tame it down.

I remember her.... sort of. I don't remember the built in underwear.....great idea, and the hair makes her so lovable. You have a way with design. She's another winner.

The basic doll was in DBC. I never added the underwear version. I can't remember why!

She's very cute and I love that you can fix her hair just by gently blowing on it. One of my nephews had the same downy feather-like hair and it stood straight up.

She is adorable, I made one of the dolls for my grand daughter about three years ago. I cant remember what I done for hair. I will have to look out through some photos to find out. I have the pattern for shoes from DBC but have not made they yet.
