Raggedy Annie Baby Doll

Finally finished a new round head charmingsbycmh raggedy annie baby doll.
She was hanging naked and bald on my wall for months
with only her face painted and stitched ~just waiting for me
to bring her to life with the perfect fabric, dress and hair style.
Her dress is a blue floral eyelet with a white eyelet underskirt ~ decided to fashion her hair in a pony tail ~ sewed long strands of yarn all around her head
then pulled it back and tied in a pony tail ~
did some needle felting to help hold her pony tail in place.
If you decide to try this ~ it takes a large amount of yarn.
Hope you like her.
Thanks for visiting ~ God bless.

  8. I just adore your dolls.

    I use fabric paint and enamel paint for my doll faces...I recently bought prismacolor premier color pencils soft thick cores for my faces...but it smudges. Am I using the wrong pencils or do I need a sealer. Please HELP!

  9. Hi Carolyn
    I use prismacolor pencils for highlighting Annie's face (brown around her eyes and red for her cheeks) - her eyes and nose I paint with acrylic paints - them seal with a light spray of matte finish. Hope this helps. God bless.
