Raggedy Rescue: Dressing Raggedy Ann (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 Ann from McCall's Crafts Pattern 8377. This pattern is out of print but you can find it on Etsy or Ebay. If you have sewing friends, it's also worth asking if they might have a copy. I've had numerous gems come my way from friends.
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 almost identical 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 look at it on the Simplicity website simplicity.com....

Thank you joyful was exactly what I was going for. I love the rickrack, too. ☺️

I am loving these Raggedy Ann tutorials. I made one years ago and I may have to make another.

[@sewhookedjen]

Thank you! I've really enjoyed sharing. If you do make one, I would love to see!

[@gwenfisher4135]

[@sewhookedjen]

I'm delighted to share!

[@lindafishman1084]

Love the step by step tutorial. Brought back so many memories to the Ann and Andy set I made years ago❤. Love the colors and fabrics you chose. She looks so amazing. I can’t wait to see how Andy turns out ❤️

[@sewhookedjen]

Thank you kind lady! Rescuing these dolls brings me so much joy and I love getting to share. Andy's clothes are all cut out and ready to make. It's next on my agenda.

Do you have instructions for the body?

[@sewhookedjen]

Hi there. I do not currently have instructions on making a doll from scratch. My focus is rescuing dolls that have already been made, but I may have a complete doll tutorial in future. I have found that most people struggle the most with adding hair to the doll and I do have a complete tutorial for that. You can find it on my channel in the Raggedy Rescue playlist. I hope that helps!
