I just completed these 3 prim & shabby raggedy ann dolls.

They are handmade with handstitched faces, hand-tied hair & lots of handstitched accents on their dresses. The dolls & their bodies have been aged for a timeworn appearance.



Found a Home~This little sweetie is a wee 9" inch doll in a retro print. She has a big bow in her hair & eyelet bloomers. Her dress has hand-stitched hems & a little embroidered heart on the dress front. Her stockings & slippers are handpainted for a soft worn appearance.
$18 includes first class US shipping



This sweetie is on her way to a new home!~This little annie is a wee 9" doll in a tiny heart print dress with handstitched hems. She has pig tails with bows. She has tiny eyelet bloomers with a real matching eyelet pocket on her dress front. Her stockings & slippers are handpainted & sanded for a soft worn appearance.
$18 includes 1st class US shipping



THIS LITTLE DARLING HAS FOUND A HOME!~This annie is large & lovely and measures 22 inches. She has a handstitched face with large button eyes with a serene expression. Her hand tied hair has a large bow to match her dress. She has eyelet bloomers & an apron that is attached with vintage buttons. Her striped stockings & maryjane shoes are handpainted and have little side buttons. I really love her hands with their five fingers. She is pure sweetness.
$34 includes priority US shipping

Thanks for taking a peek!

Blessings, Lea

They are adorable. I specially like the largest Annie with the bow in her hair and sweet face. Will you have more than just the one? MB

Thank you for your kind words, Mary Beth. I have 3 more Annie's ready that are 15" and need clothes right now. (They are still in their birthday suits.) But I don't have any other large Annies. She is the only one. I have others planned, but they're only in my imagination! LOL

Thank you so much, Frannie. I just feel honored that you like my dolls. I can hardly wait to see what you cook up. Enjoying the work of others is almost as good as creating something yourself! That fabric store sounds just great. Do they have a web-site?

Hope you have loads of fun on your weekend holiday! Of course, I think you would have fun most anywhere at anytime!

I've been reading about your cabin fever gathering and so regretting that I can't join you all. Sounds like loads of fun. I sure hope you'll share photos. I'll have to get a cup of hot cocoa and enjoy the fun from afar! Thanks for thinking of me.

Lea, your 22" Annie has such a look on her face she really did call me. Isn't that odd. I have to keep going back and looking at her---I know what it is--she has a wistful look. I know her. MB

Yes, MaryBeth, that is interesting how we connect to the emotions that dolls can draw out of us. I've always thought it was an amazing thing. I'm so glad that this Annie has done that for you. I will just finish up the stitchery pillow that I want to send with her. Oh please make sure that you email your address to me so she knows how to find your house!

I love dolls, too, Debi! I'm 42 years old & my husband still buys me a doll for Christmas. He has for the past 20 years! Some girls just never grow up, do they? And I hope I never do.

I'd be happy to make you a doll if you decide that you'd like one down the road. I have two more 12" dolls that will be ready on Monday. I'll try to post photos if I get a chance.

Thanks for your kindness everyone. Sure makes me feel good!

Do you still have the first doll available? She is just too adorable. Let me know if you still have her or not.

Thanks,

Hi everyone!

Jessica, I'm so glad that your dolly made you smile! That makes ME happy!

Thank you, Cheryl, for your sweet comments. It is so encouraging to me.

I am still off-line for another week or so ... the computer tech is trying to doctor my computer. Can't wait to get back to visit with everyone. Right now, I've been borrowing a friend's computer just to check on my etsy shop & ebay to finish up loose ends. I have mailed out all of your dolls late last week so everyone's goodies should be arriving shortly! Thanks for being patient with me and sorry for the delay!
