This is my Sleepy Baby Doll that sleeps on my bed during the day.
This doll is special to me as it was made by my sister-in-love, Sally.
I bought 3 dolls from Sally in 1991 as she was making dolls to sell at that time.
Sleepy Baby has a porcelien head and hands. The rest of her body is stuffed fabric. Sally made the dress and head piece she is wearing.
She is precious to me because Sally made her. Thanks for letting me share her with you today.

What a treasure and so precious. I love dolls. I don't think a girl at heart is ever too old for them. Hugs!
My dear Susan!
I hope you are doing fine and you are enjoying these festive days before Christmas!
Your little sleeping Baby doll is so pretty and how wonderful that she is sitting on your bed! I would love making my own doll, angel or fairy one day, too! Oh my - I still have so many ideas!

Wow! She is beautiful and such a treasure because she was made by someone dear to you. I never played with dolls when I was little, but do love the porcelain ones now. I have four in my collection, but have given all the others away.
Thanks you for sharing.
Blessings,
Mary

A very sweet baby doll...I know she looks precious on your bed every day!
And a happy birthday to your dear friend!
What a beautiful doll. I have one I passed on to my daughter. It's now 44 years old.
Loved the doll. I really loved the quilt she was laying on also. Have a good week. God Bless!
Beautiful dolls. I love dolls--I don't want to collect anymore that I already have, but I do enjoy seeing those that other people have. AND I am enjoying getting to buy a few for our granddaughter after 2 sons and 4 grandsons. I love all the guys, but basketballs, trucks, and robots are not as fun as dolls and frilly stuff! lol
I love your sleepy baby doll! How precious!!
Your doll is so pretty.
What a treasure she is to you, I'm sure.
Your sister is obviously a talented sewer.
Beautiful! I love dolls and always wanted to make some like this, but never did.
Katherine
I love dolls too! Thanks for sharing!
