Raggedy Rescue: Dressing Raggedy Andy (Making New Clothes with McCalls Crafts Pattern 8377)

Welcome back for another Raggedy Rescue!
I do not take commissions or special orders. This is a hobby for me and not a job. The intention of these videos is to help others with repairs. ♥
This week we're making clothes for Raggedy Andy from McCall's Crafts Pattern 8377. This is the same pattern I used to dress the Raggedy Ann I've paired this fella with. The pattern is out of print but you can find it on Etsy or Ebay. If you have sewing friends, it's worth asking if they might have a copy. I've had several gems come my way from friends.
I made a pretty glaring mistake while making his outfit, but I didn't notice until I was editing the video, and the clothes still went together just fine. I explain in the video what happened, but rest assured all the steps are correct despite my inability to notice my mistake until it was too late! I'm human, after all, and find that the older I get, the more okay I am with mistakes. Live and learn!
Other McCall's Numbers for Raggedy Ann & Andy: 5499, 2447, 846, or 713 (10", 15", 20" & 25"). There are also Simplicity patterns out there that I have not yet tried. The patterns include the doll pattern, clothing pattern, and instructions.
Simplicity pattern 8043 is in print and certainly less expensive in most cases, but I haven't personally tried it yet. The clothes and dolls look very similar to the older McCalls patterns. Simplicity owns McCalls now, but I do not know if their pattern predates the merger. If you've compared the two, please do let me know. amzn.to/49fztFE (affiliate link) or check the Simplicity website simplicity.com....
